Really Quick Osso Bucco

Hooray! I did it and it was very delicious!

• flour
• Olive  oil
• 2 smallish veal shank slices (1/2 inch thick)
• ½ tsp Kosher Salt, I like my Himalayan Pink Salt, but that’s just me
• fresh ground black pepper
• 1 large onion, diced
• 1 stalk celery, diced
• 1 carrot, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, crushed
• 1 tablespoon tomato paste
• 2 sprigs thyme (or 1 teaspoon dried thyme)
• 1/2 cup chicken stock
• 1/4 cup dry white wine
• ½ tsp lemon zest
• 3 tablespoons parsely

Seriously, My mother will boot my butt if i don’t get dinner done. !

Today I took a package of veal shanks out of the freezer. Figuring, of course that dinner time was forever away. Right! 

Well, here I am it’s 5:00 and my mother is all over me. “What are you going to do with those veal shanks?” 

Ayy Yyyy Yyyy

OK enter pressure cooker. Get ready for some Osso Bucco, pressure cooker style. 

Here’s what I’m gonna do: 

Dry them off really good and dredge in flour. 

Brown them in olive oil on all sides

Take them out and put in the veges and cook till translucent. Add Tomato Paste. Cook more until tomato paste is browned and veges are browned too. Add white wine, herbs and Chicken Stock. 

Put the veal shanks back in the pressure cooker and set on pressure. I’ve only got two little shanks in there so 20 minutes will likely do it for me. 

When done and pressure goes down, add the lemon zest and let steep in the steam of the hot pot. Server with potatoes. 

I’ll let you know how it goes and will take a photo when it is done.
