  Hi, The section below, from this recipe, appears to have some words missing, if you actually read it through, you'll see what I mean. Also there's nothing stating when to put the lamb back in the pot and then into the oven! How much is actually missing here; ... Remove the lamb, add the onion and carrot few mins more. Stir in the flour and tomato pur�e, season well then pour over the wine and stock..... Kind regards, Bob

  This receipe has bay, garlic and rosemary in the ingredients, but doesn't actually tell you to put them in. It also doesn't tell you to put the lamb back in to the pan once you have removed it to soften the carrot and onion!

  I agree with Bob, I wasn't sure whether to put the lamb in the oven or on the stove top or when to add the rosemary, bay leaves and garlic. Wish Good Food would check their recipes for errors before printing them.

  Really simple, allowing for the slightly confusing menu notes mentioned above, and very tasty indeed. Can be made well ahead and left for even better flavour.

  I have not made this recipe yet, as I do not understand what is written. I noticed that others have commented on the missing pieces of the recipes and this happens quite often with the recipes displayed here. There also has not been any reply from the Good Food team.

We do our upmost to make sure that all our recipes are accurate and do appreciate any feedback if there is an oversight of any sort. We hope you were still able to enjoy the lamb shanks despite the confusion. Caroline, editor, bbcgoodfood.com

  This went down very well when I made it for my fiance - he was really impressed and regularly asks me to make it. It's well worth making.

  Fantastic, a great straight forward, simple to follow recipe. I did however follow the recipe and put all the contents in a slowcooker. It was heaven to get home and enjoy the aroma but all the better to enjoy eating in. The meat was like butter. Will be trying it again for sure.

  Cooked this for a dinner party and everyone was most impressed.The lamb was achingly tender and the sauce quite delicious.I cooked it earlier in the day so that I could clear all of the messy bits and reheat the dish, giving me time to enjoy it too.Thanks so much

  Caroline, The recipe is still not quite clear - we are advised to remove the lamb twice. Please can someone clarify. Regards, Callum.

  Gorgeous I altered the times, cooked it at 150 degrees for 3 hours and the meat was meltingly tender.
