Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Place lamb shank in a saucepan, cover with water, and add thyme. Cover and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook until meat is falling off bone, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
Step 2
Transfer lamb and 16 ounces cooking liquid to two separate containers. Place in the refrigerator to chill, 1 hour to overnight. Discard remaining cooking liquid.
Step 3
Skim off any solidified fat from chilled cooking liquid and discard.
Step 4
Remove meat from bone and place in a food processor. Discard bone, excess fat, and tendons. Add 2 1/2 ounces cooking liquid to meat and process until a fine, even texture is achieved, adding more liquid as needed.
