Osso Buco Express

This Italian dish, usually made with thick veal shanks, is done in a flash with the help of a pressure cooker. We call for thinner -- and less expensive -- veal shoulder arm steaks. They may be labeled as chops, just be sure to look for the small round bone. Serve over rice if you like.
