You’ll need to cook the lamb shanks before putting them in the slow cooker. Bring a large non-stick pan to high heat and cook the shanks for about 6 minutes, turning them regularly.
Place shanks in the slow cooker.
In the same pan, add the onion, sweet potato and parsnip and cook for 6 minutes.
Next, add all the other ingredients and cook for an additional one minute.
Pour everything over the shanks and cook on low for six hours or until lamb is tender.
Divide on to two plates, and sprinkle with a generous serve of salt and cracked pepper.
