Instructions
- Peel and thinly slice an onion and load into the instant pot with extra virgin olive oil and sauté.
- Season your lamb shanks with salt, pepper, and bouquet garni. Load into the instant pot and brown all sides of the lamb shank in the olive oil and onions.
- Once browned cancel sauté and remove the lamb shanks and put to one side.
- Deglaze the instant pot with red wine. Do this by pouring your red wine into instant pot cooking pot and then using a silicone spatula or a wooden spoon to scrape the brown bits and any oil or onion that is stuck in the bottom of the pot.
- Peel and dice carrots. Clean and dice celery. Load celery and carrot into the instant pot.
- Cancel sauté.
- Stir in tinned tomatoes, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and stock and mix well.
- Submerge the lamb shanks.
- Place the tall trivet over your lamb shanks and add your steamer basket.
- Dice your potatoes and load as many potatoes as will fit without going passed the max line of the instant pot.
- Season potatoes with salt.
- Place the lid on the instant pot and cook for 60 minutes on meat/stew. When it beeps manually release pressure.
- Remove the steamer basket and the trivet. In a bowl load up your potatoes and mash with a masher. Add in salt, pepper, thyme, butter, and milk.
- Load the mashed potatoes onto a dinner plate and place a lamb shank on top.
- Add a couple of tablespoons of mashed potatoes to what is left in the bottom of the instant pot and blend. The mushy vegetables and mashed potatoes and stock have now made a thick flavoursome lamb gravy. Pour a little gravy over your lamb shanks and then when cool portion up the rest for the freezer.
Notes
- Never skip the last step. It’s the most amazing lamb gravy you have ever tried. I have lots of it stored in the freezer for next time I have lamb. Works perfectly for a base for a lamb stew, lamb curry or even a lamb soup.

- You can serve some of the carrots and celery, but I use it mainly as a stock for my lamb.
