2 tablespoons (30 ml) cider vinegar
2 tablespoons (30 ml) dry sherry

Directions:
In a small bowl combine all the sauce ingredients. Heat the oil in the pressure cooker until very hot, then add as many ribs at a time as will comfortably fit, and brown well. Pour off all fat, then stir in the sauce.
