This Instant Pot Osso Buco is a simple and savory dish, perfect for a hearty and flavorful meal. The veal shanks are cooked to perfection with a blend of vegetables, herbs, and wine, making it a delightful dish for any occasion.
Season the veal shanks with salt and pepper, then dredge in flour, shaking off any excess.
Select the "Saute" function on the Instant Pot and heat the olive oil. Brown the veal shanks on all sides, working in batches if needed. Remove and set aside.
Add the onion, carrots, celery, and garlic to the pot. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
Pour in the beef broth, diced tomatoes, and white wine. Stir to combine.
Return the veal shanks to the pot. Add the rosemary, thyme, and bay leaf.
Close the Instant Pot lid and set the valve to "Sealing." Cook on high pressure for 45 minutes.
Once done, allow for a natural pressure release for 10 minutes before manually releasing any remaining pressure.
Discard the herb sprigs and bay leaf. Serve the osso buco hot, garnished with gremolata if desired.
Notes:
This dish pairs well with risotto or mashed potatoes.
