That wasn’t fully served, see pic related. Irish stew isn’t exactly an exciting dish.

Lamb shanks need long slow braising and my oven isn’t up for it.

Once the meat, bone and top potato has been added to the serving bowls, give the remaining liquid a good stir to break up the potato and thicken the sauce. Ladle some over the meat and veg and you’re done!

Some variations might add some Guinness to the stock, or thicken it with roux, but if you use reasonably floury potato on the bottom, it should thicken up nicely on its own.
This is an easy, low and slow recipe that’s delicious and almost impossible to fuck up. If you’re not used to lamb, it also makes a great introduction as it’s mild and tender.
Cheers anons, if nobody has any questions, I’m out. I hope you try Irish stew for yourself, it’s delicious!
