Directions
Soak the beans overnight in water to cover and drain.
Season lamb shanks with 1 teaspoon of the salt and pepper to taste.
In a large deep skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
Add the lamb shanks on all sides about 10 minutes.
Remove browned shanks to a platter.
Add the garlic, carrots, onions and celery to the skillet and cook until softened, about 10 minutes.
Pour in the wine and cook 2 minutes.
Transfer mixture to a large stockpot.
Add the tomatoes, using back of spoon to break up.
Add the beans, shanks, stock, rosemary and bay leaves.
Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and skim surface as needed.
Cover and cook until lamb and beans are tender, about 2 hours.
Skim as much fat as possible from surface.
Remove shanks, using tongs, to 8 individual plates.
Season the bean mixture with salt & pepper if needed.
Discard the rosemary and bay leaves.
Using a slotted spoon, arrange some of the bean mixture around each lamb shank.
