LAMB SHANKS WITH TOMATO & OLIVES
A hearty dish guaranteed to hit the spot. My hubby loves this recipe - he would have me make it more often if he had his way! It sounds a lot of shanks but the dish is ideal for 4 people. I usually make this when our best friends come over so the four of us enjoy it with a glass of red. I also find you can serve it with either potato and veggies or risoni tossed in butter. Either way it is great. I found the recipe in the Woman's Weekly magazine, and never looked back!
