Pork Ribs with Apple and Ginger
This was tonight's dinner - cooked in the pressure cooker after soccer practice and in the midst of homework being completed. When it appeared on the table, the boys were in shock that I had produced this midweek, without a fuss and on a busy night! Amazing what a drop in temperature can entice you to cook up! It is so easy and so delicious that it will happen in our house more than once!!!!! ENJOY!

Pour in all the marinade ingredients

Follow your pressure cooker instructions to bring to pressure and allow to cook at pressure for 1 hour.

Carefully allow the steam to escape and open the lid - the aroma will be powerfully seductive!

Take the ribs out and arrange on a large serving platter (I love to serve over roasted kumara) and spoon over the thickened apple ginger sauce.

Good luck if you can eat these and stop before you get a tummy ache!!!!
Great flavours, once started eating couldn’t stop until the end. A conversation inhibitor.
