Instructions
›› Season the shanks lightly with Robertsons Atlantic Sea Salt and Freshly Ground Pepper and brown a few at a time in a heated potjie pot until browned all over.
›› Remove the shanks and sauté the onion in a little olive oil until soft.
›› Add the vinegar and stir through. Then add all the spices and stir-fry lightly.
›› Add the tomatoes and mix through. Return the shanks to the pot, lower the heat, add boiling water and simmer for about 1 – 1 1/2 hours until the shanks are done.

›› Season with salt and pepper to taste and another sprinkle of balsamic vinegar if you like.
