- Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Heat 1 Tbsp. butter with 1 Tbsp. peanut oil in a large roasting pan or possibly Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add in onions, carrots, garlic and ginger; reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring, till vegetables soften, about 10 min. Remove vegetables with a slotted spoon and keep hot.
- Mix flour, salt and pepper together in a shallow bowl. Coat each of the pcs of beef shank in flour and shake off excess. Add in remaining 2 Tbsp. butter and 1 Tbsp. oil to pot and heat. Over medium-high heat, brown meat well on all sides, 5 to 7 min. Remove shanks to a platter.
- Reduce heat to medium and add in coriander, cumin, turmeric and red pepper flakes. Stir for 1 minute to release oils from spices. Stir in 1/2 c. beef stock and scrape up any browned bits from bottom of pan. Stir in remaining 1 1/4 c. beef stock and coconut lowfat milk and bring to a boil.
- Return shanks and vegetables to pan and add in cheesecloth pouch of spices.
- Cover pot, bring it to a boil, and place it in preheated oven. The shanks should braise till meat is tender and shrinking away from the bone, 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 hrs. Check shanks from time to time to make sure they aren't sticking to bottom of pot.
- When shanks are tender, remove them to a hot platter and cover loosely with foil to keep hot. Degrease braising liquid if necessary and reduce it over medium-high heat to thicken slightly. Remove spice pouch and taste for salt and pepper.
- Serve the shanks on hot plates with steamed jasmine rice; ladle the sauce over them, and garnish with the cilantro.
