    Very good and satisfying. Do not leave out the herb sauce. Spoon just a bit of the herb sauce on the side of each serving plate. The acid is a perfect foil to the richness of the meat and polenta. I added some pine nuts to the polenta to offer some crunch to the dish. Not necessary but a nice addition for a variety in texture.

    Delicious outcome. Used 4 lbs of ribs and cooked it for 1 hour on pressure high. Made the lemon basil drizzle which did complement the ragu.
