How to Make It.
Action 1
Preheat the oven to 300 °. Season the lamb shanks with salt and pepper. Heat 1/4 cup of the olive oil in a large enameled cast-iron casserole. Operating in batches, cook the lamb shanks over moderate heat, turning typically, until well browned on all sides, about 12 minutes; transfer to a plate.
Action 2
Put off any fat from the casserole and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Return the lamb shanks to the casserole and include the stock.
Action 3
Transfer the shanks to the platter and eliminate the meat from the bones. Put the meat in a bowl and cover with a moist towel. Strain the sauce into a big pan, pressing on the veggies to extract as much liquid as possible. Boil the sauce over high heat till it is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 25 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Return the lamb to the sauce and rewarm over moderate heat.
Action 4
In a small bowl, mix the parsley with the lemon zest and garlic. Spoon the lamb stew over the Morel and Sweet Pea Risotto, spray with the gremolata and serve.
