Braised in a light tomato sauce and finished with lemon gremolata, these lamb shanks have Mediterranean overtones, which is why I like to serve them with buttered orzo or polenta. That said, a bed of mashed potatoes is pretty good, too.

Serves 4 to 8

Ingredients
  1. 4 cups cooked, mashed sweet potatoes 1L
  2. 2 Tbsp. cream or milk 30mL
  3. 1 tsp. salt 5mL
  4. 1/4 tsp. paprika 1 mL
  5. 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed 125mL
  6. 1/3 cup butter 75mL
  7. 1 cup pecan halves, to cover casserole 250 mL
Instructions
  1. Thoroughly mix potatoes, cream, salt and paprika. Spread in greased casserole. Make the topping by heating brown sugar and butter over low heat, stirring constantly, until butter is barely melted. (It is important not to cook after butter is melted, or the topping will harden when casserole is heated.) Spread topping over potatoes and cover with pecan halves. Refrigerate until ready to heat. This casserole may be warmed in an oven of any temperature. Should be bubbling hot before servings. Serves 6-8.
