Suon Xao Chua Ngot (Sweet and Sour Pork Spare Ribs)...

Suon Xao Chua Ngot (Sweet and Sour Pork Spare Ribs)...

This recipe came from my mom. I was able to finish cooking today before working out at the gym. I feel very relieved to have everything done at home today before "FIT & Soul Grooves" class. :)

Ingredients
3 lb pork spare ribs bone in (cut into 1.5 in pieces)
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 white onion (wedges)
4 tbsp fish sauce
4 tbsp white vinegar
4 tbsp sugar
cornstarch mix (1 tspn cornstarch w/.5 cup water, stir into slurry)
1 red pepper, minced
2 tbspn oil
Black Pepper
2 tbsp caramel sauce

Directions

1.) Heat up a pot of water with high heat. Add the spare ribs in. Wait until boiled. Drain with a colander, and rinse. This is to clean the meat first before cooking and also tenderizing it.



2.) Marinade the ribs with 1tbsp fish sauce, a little garlic, some onions, and black pepper.



3.) Heat up a pan with med to high heat. Add in oil. Then, add in the onions and garlic. Stir fry until fragrant. Now, add in the pork ribs. Drizzle the caramel sauce in. Stir fry until golden brown. Add in the remaining fish sauce, white vinegar, sugar, and red pepper. Then, add in the corn starch mix. Adjust more fish sauce, vinegar, or sugar according to preference.
