Preheat oven to 350ºF1
Pat lamb shanks with paper towels, then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a Dutch oven over medium/high heat. Brown shanks on all sides. Remove to plate. Reduce heat to medium and add onions. Cook till golden brown then add cinnamon and cook for 30 seconds longer. Stir in stock, honey, garlic, Worcestershire sauce and bay leaves. Bring to a boil, stirring and scraping up all brown bits from the bottom of the pot. Return shanks to pot, cover tightly and transfer to oven. Cook for 11/2 hours or until lamb it tender. Turn lamb shanks over halfway through. Remove shanks to a plate and cover with tin foil. Remove garlic and set aside. Discard bay leaves. When garlic is cool enough to touch, squeeze bulbs from skin and mash. Whisk garlic into cooking juices, bringing to boil. Cook for 2-3 minutes. Taste and add more sat and pepper if needed. Serve shank on top of garlic mashed potatoes, topped with sauce and sprinkles with parsley.
