Ingredients

  • 1 lamb shank
  • 1 tea glass of orzo
  • 1 teaspoon of butter
  • Water or broth
  • Salt (appropriate for your baby's age)

Method

  1. 01

    Cook the shanks in a pressure cooker or a pot until the meat falls off the bone. It is recommended to cook it in the pressure cooker for 2 hours.

  2. 02

    In another pot, add the butter and sauté the orzo.

  3. 03

    Before the sautéed orzo gets too hard, add the broth (or hot water) and cook on low heat until the orzo softens and absorbs the water, for about 10-15 minutes.

  4. 04

    Shred the cooked lamb shank meat into small pieces with your hands.

  5. 05

    Mix the shredded lamb into the cooked orzo pilaf or serve it separately on the side.
