I used two lamb shanks with a total weight of just under a kilogram. I used an electric pressure cooker but when I started to make the recipe we had a power cut so I did the cooking bit on the stove top and put it in the pressure cooker and once power was restored I set it for 75 minutes did a fast release once finished cooking and while the lamb shanks cooled a bit I cooked the pasta and then shredded the shanks and returned the meat to the pot and added some shredded baby spinach. I really enjoyed this for dinner but not so much the DH but then he is not a fan of lamb shanks, but thank you lazyme made for Pick Me tag game under the 48 hour rule.
