Preparing In The Kitchen

Preheat oven to 200°C . To make the curry paste, place the coriander, cumin and fennel seeds in a small frying pan over medium heat and cook for 1 minute. Place in a small food processor. Add the turmeric, paprika, garlic, ginger and eschalot, and process until finely ground. Set aside.
Heat butter in a dutch oven. Add the lamb shanks and cook, turning, for 4–6 minutes. Remove from the dutch oven and set aside. Add the curry paste to the pot and cook for 2 minutes (do not burn).
