Braised lamb in red wine 🍷 Inspired by Gordon Ramsay — and approved even by the ones who “don’t like lamb” ( they asked for seconds) Save this for your next wow-dinner moment 👇 recipe: 4 lamb shanks Olive oil, for frying 2 carrots, peeled and sliced 1 onion, peeled and thickly sliced 2 bay leaves 1 x 750ml bottle red wine 500ml chicken stock Small handful of mint leaves, to garnish FOR THE MARINADE: 1–2 green chillies, deseeded and sliced, to taste 1–2 red chillies, de из заseeded and sliced, to taste 2 tsp smoked paprika 2 tsp dried oregano 1 tsp cumin seeds 2 cinnamon sticks, snapped in half 3 garlic cloves, peeled, roughly chopped and crushed Olive oil Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper First prepare the marinade. Mix the chillies (use only one of each if you don’t like hot dishes), smoked paprika, oregano, cumin seeds, cinnamon sticks, garlic, 1 tablespoon of olive oil and seasoning together. Rub the mixture into the lamb so that it is well flavoured. You can cook the lamb straight away, but if you have time, cover and leave to marinate for at least 1 hour, or even overnight. Preheat the oven to 160°C/Gas 3. Heat a large casserole dish on the hob and add a couple of tablespoons of olive oil. Brown the lamb in it for about 6 minutes until coloured on all sides, then add the chillies and cinnamon from the marinade. Add the carrots, onion and bay leaves to the casserole and brown for a minute or two. Lift the lamb so that it is resting on top of the onions and carrots. Add the red wine to deglaze the pan, scraping up the bits from the bottom, then bring to the boil and cook for 7–8 minutes to reduce the liquid by half. Add the chicken stock, bring to the boil, then transfer, uncovered, to the preheated oven. Cook for 3 hours until the meat is really tender and the sauce reduced. (If the tops of the shanks look like they might be drying out, just baste and occasionally turn them.) Remove the cooked meat from the oven and serve garnished with torn mint leaves and the cooking juices spooned on top. #BraisedLamb #POV #CookingMagic #DinnerPartyWin

I had to depart from my alongside dock in Palaia Epidaurus Greece and my friend Nikos was alongside to me with anchor ⚓ and stern lines. Instead of getting his boat out we decided to open his bow and let Oceania go through. All the other sailors wasn't sure about that maneuver but since Nikos was very experienced we knew exactly what to do and we did it! Slack starboard stern line, drop chain, forward to port stern line and with a little help from the bow thruster we open just enough so the crossing wind wasn't about to push OCEANIA to the boat behind us and SUCCESS!! Good seamanship means to care more about others in the sea than you care about your self!
