Mary Ann reminds her students that "a good cook loves a low flame." Especially when it comes to preparing a southern Italian favorite, Oven Roasted Lamb Shanks. After searing to seal in the juices, she adds a red wine and beef broth sauce along with carrots and onions for a long, low, slow cook. While that's in the oven Mary Ann prepares a perfect side of Roasted Fennel and Beans. Don't have time to cook? Make time for this!
