Ingredients
 

  • 2 piece Lamb knuckles
  • 2 piece Garlic cloves
  • 50 g Orange jam bitter *
  • 0,5 teaspoon Salt
  • 0,5 teaspoon Black pepper from the mill
  • 3 piece Fresh thyme sprigs
  • 2 tablespoon Soy sauce light
  • 2 piece Medium onions
  • 1 tablespoon Clarified butter
  • 150 ml Lamb stock * - alternatively vegetable stock
  • 150 ml Red wine - here Franconian dominatrix, dry
  • 150 g Mushrooms brown
  • 2 piece Cloves

Instructions
 

  • Wash the shanks of lamb and pat dry carefully. Peel the garlic and cut into sticks. Lard the lamb knuckles with it.
  • Heat the orange jam in a small saucepan. Grind salt, pepper, the leaves from a sprig of thyme and the two cloves in a mortar. Mix this mixture with the orange jam and the soy sauce and rub or brush the knuckle with it. Put the remaining marinade aside.
  • Peel and dice the onions. Heat the clarified butter in a pan and sear the knuckles on all sides. Add the onion cubes and let them brown a little.
  • Add the lamb stock (broth) and wine, add the two sprigs of thyme, cover and simmer at a low temperature for about one to one and a half hours.
  • In the meantime, clean the mushrooms and cut them into slices.
  • Remove the lamb knuckles from the sauce, brush with the remaining marinade and keep warm.
  • Strain the sauce through a sieve and add the mushrooms. Bring everything to the boil again and simmer for about 5 minutes.
  • Now detach the meat from the bones and serve with a side dish - here it was spaetzle - and the sauce.
