This is excellent lamb. I was unable to find lamb shanks, so I got lamb shoulder chops and followed the technique for cooking, but only cooked it for 10 minutes and it was perfect. The sauce is fantastic. Thanks for posting.

    It smelled WONDEREfUL. I had stew meat I was also going to cook, so I decided to start the lamb shanks then add the extra meat halfway through. The shanks were frozen to begin with. They cooked 19 minutes under pressure at medium heat. I noticed a burning smell and opened it up. There was a think black crust on the pot. I was able to salvage some of the shanks. I believe this recipe is for too long with this little amount of liquid. My pressure cooker is quite large. Perhaps that is a factor.

    This is an outstanding recipe that is really easy to prepare. My guests said it was better than anything they had ever ordered in a restaurant.

    Our first recipe cooked in the pressure cooker - for a dinner party. Turned out really, really well - I was amazed. We used a cabernet instead of port. Will be cooked and eaten at our place again for sure!

    This was very good. I used a tablespoon of balsamic. I agree that the garlic taste was not quite enough for my taste. Next time, I will chop some of the garlic. Thanks for a nice and easy recipe.

    This recipe is fantastic! My family loved it and my youngest son is begging me to cook it again. He says it's the best dish I've done to cooking lamb. I adjusted the recipe though. I used fresh rosemary sprigs, and instead of tomato paste, I used half a cup of stewed tomatoes minced to puree consistency. I also added an extra cup of water to the recipe.
