Braised Lamb Shanks – Pressure Cooker Recipe, Tender braised lamb shanks in a red wine and vegetable gravy Really not as rich as it sounds Was given a pressure cooker as a gift from my family for my birthday- a Tefal Minut Pressure Cooker This was my first recipe to try from the recipe book that came with it My family raved over this dish Ask the butcher to ‘french trim’ the shanks for you, or at least remove the knuckle end This will also cut down on the fattiness of the dish Use gluten-free flour and stock for a gluten-free meal Serve with mashed potato and a green vege sid Delicious gravy for your mash, What a disappointment! Should have read the reviews first Followed the recipe exactly as it was written and in 30 minutes the shanks were nowhere near done and the bottom of the pot was scorched Added more liquid and cooked for another 10 minutes but still tasted burnt I would make again as the liquid mixture (before it got burnt) smelled divine, but would definitely double the liquid I don’t know what kind of pressure cooker was used to cook this in 25 minutes used a tramontina at full pressure and they were nowhere near done I would say it would take a minimum of 45 – 50 minutes My poor husband waited patiently and we ate a burnt tasting scorched meal 🙁
