Ingredients:

1     can           no-salt-added crushed tomatoes - (28 oz)
2                   onions
1/4   cup           dry red wine
4                   garlic cloves
1     teaspoon      dried oregano
1/2   teaspoon      cinnamon
1/4   teaspoon      grated nutmeg
1/4   teaspoon      freshly-ground black pepper
3                   lamb shanks - (12 oz ea)
4     cups          hot cooked brown rice

Directions: one line for each direction. When saved the lines will be numbered.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
In a large nonstick Dutch oven or flameproof casserole, combine the tomatoes, onions, wine, garlic, oregano, cinnamon, nutmeg and pepper; bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and add the lamb. Bake, covered, until the meat almost falls off the bone, about 1 1/2 hours. Let cool until the shanks are comfortable to handle, about 30 minutes.
Cut the meat from the bone; discard the gristle and bones. Return the meat to the tomato mixture and cook over medium heat until heated through, about 10 minutes.
Serve the rice, topped with the meat and sauce.
