Serve each shank on mashed potato, spoon over plenty of gravy and serve with steamed green beans or peas. If you like the gravy a little thicker, whisk a small quantity of the sauce with flour, mix with the rest of the sauce and heat over low heat. How simple is this pressure cooker recipe?! Bon Appetit.
