The previous time I bought Aldi 'Lamb Shanks', I made the mistake of buying the ones that had a Mint flavoured sauce. It slightly spoilt an otherwise very pleasant meal.
This time I bought the same thing, but with a Red Wine sauce; far, far, better.
Again I put a few spuds in to roast, then 15 minutes later the still-frozen Lamb Shanks. After an hour the dish was complete. No cooking to speak of, and just two small roasting dishes to wash-up.
As you might see, I added my own pukka home-made Mint sauce this time, and it was totally delicious. I probably put too much of the red-wine sauce on my plate, but.....
If you are like me and occasionally you don't feel like cooking, but want something delicious at a very reasonable price; go to Aldi, buy a few of these packs for your freezer, and you are ready for whatever life throws at you. There are two separate vacuum-packs of Lamb in each £7 packet, so also perfect for one-person households.
Verdict: 10/10 Totally delicious, at a bargain price (£3.50 each). 5 Star Yums.
