Ingredients

  • 3 pounds lamb shanks, on the bone

  • 1 (32 fluid ounce) container Thai culinary stock

  • 1 (14 ounce) can unsweetened coconut milk

  • 12 ounces fire-roasted tomatoes

  • 1 tablespoon red curry powder

  • 1 pinch red pepper flakes, or to taste

  • salt to taste

  • 1 head cauliflower, chopped

  • 3 medium red potatoes, quartered

  • 1 cup frozen peas

Directions

  1. Place lamb shanks, culinary stock, coconut milk, tomatoes, curry powder, red pepper, and salt together in the bottom of a slow cooker. Cook on High until lamb is tender and juices run clear when pierced with a knife, about 3 hours.

  2. Skim the fat off of the top of the mixture. Mix in cauliflower, potatoes, and peas. Switch to Low and cook until vegetables are tender, about 3 hours more. Remove lamb meat from bones. Return meat to the slow cooker; discard bones.

Cook's Note:

You can thicken the sauce with some heavy cream if you'd like, after it has finished cooking. Don't simmer or boil the cream!
