Preheat the oven to 170 C, 325 F, Gas mark 3.
In a deep sided flameproof large casserole dish seal the lamb shanks until
browned on all sides.
In the meantime place the coriander, cumin, fennel, star anise and cinnamon
on a baking tray and roast for 2 minutes, or until deep brown but not
burnt. Remove and grind to a fine powder.
Add the vegetables to the casserole dish, along with the chilli and lemon,
saute for approximately 5 minutes.
Then add the tomatoes, roasted spices, water, dried mint, olives, tamarind
