Why Choose Mutton Short Shank?
The short shank is rich in collagen and connective tissue, which breaks down beautifully during slow cooking, creating a melt-in-the-mouth texture with a bold, savory flavor. This makes it a popular choice for dishes like Nihari, where the meat becomes incredibly tender and flavorful as it absorbs spices and seasonings.

Cooking Instructions: Nihari Stew:

1. Season the shank with salt, pepper, and traditional Nihari spices (such as cumin, coriander, and cloves).
2. In a large pot, heat oil and sear the shank pieces until browned.
3. Add garlic, ginger, and onions, and cook until fragrant.
4. Pour in water or stock, cover, and simmer on low heat for 3-4 hours until the meat is tender and infused with flavor.

Oven Braising:

1. Preheat oven to 160°C (Fan 140°C/Gas 3).
2. Season and sear the shank in a hot pan.
3. Transfer to an oven-safe dish, add stock, and cover tightly.
4. Cook for 2-3 hours until the meat is falling off the bone.

Preparation Tip:
Marinate the shank in spices and yogurt for a few hours before cooking to enhance flavor and tenderize the meat.
