Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons safflower oil 3 1/2 to 4 pounds lamb shanks Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper 1 medium onion, finely chopped 3 garlic cloves, minced (1 tablespoon) 2 tablespoons tomato paste 1/2 cup dry red wine 2 1/2 cups homemade or store-bought low-sodium chicken stock 1 dried bay leaf 6 sprigs thyme 3 parsnips, peeled, cut into 1/2-inch pieces 1 medium celery root, peeled, cut into 1/2-inch pieces (about 2 cups) 4 ounces cipollini onions, peeled 2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled 3/4 cup heavy cream 4 ounces (1 stick) unsalted butter 1 1/4 cups frozen peas, thawed
Directions
Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season lamb generously with salt and pepper. Working in batches, cook until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate. Reduce heat to medium. Add onion and garlic to pot, and cook until softened, about 4 minutes. Stir in tomato paste and cook for 2 minutes. Stir in wine, bring to a boil, and cook for 1 minute.
Add browned lamb, stock, bay leaf, and thyme to pot. Bring to a simmer; cover, and transfer to oven. Cook for 2 hours. Add parsnips, celery root, and cipollini, and cook until vegetables and meat are tender, about 1 hour.
Meanwhile, bring potatoes to a boil in a pot of salted water. Reduce heat, and simmer until tender, about 30 minutes. Drain, and let cool slightly. Press hot potatoes through a ricer into pot. Add cream, butter, and 2 teaspoons salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring often, until warmed through. (Alternatively, whip potatoes with a mixer until smooth.) Press a piece of plastic wrap directly on surface.
Using a slotted spoon, transfer lamb to a dish, reserving sauce. Remove meat from bones, shredding it into bite-size pieces. Skim fat from sauce. Discard bay leaf and thyme. Return meat to sauce in pot, and add peas. Season with salt and pepper.
Preheat broiler. Spoon lamb into a 6-cup baking dish adding just enough sauce to moisten; reserve remaining sauce. Spread potatoes over lamb. Alternatively, spoon potatoes into a pastry bag fitted with a 3/4-inch plain round tip, and pipe on top of lamb, covering surface. Broil until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Serve immediately with reserved sauce.
