Braised Sweet And Sour Spareribs Food

BRAISED SWEET AND SOUR SPARERIBS

Steps:

• Trim excess fat from the spareribs. Rinse in cold water and pat dry with paper towels until almost dry to the touch. Place spareribs in a 3 quart saucepan. Sprinkle them with sugar and toss to combine. Marinate 30 minutes. Pour off excess liquid. To the same pan, add thin and black soy sauce, vinegar, ketchup, rice wine, and 1/2 cup cold water, and stir to combine. Bring to a boil over high heat. Covered. Reduce to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally to make sure the sauce does not dry up (add a little water if necessary), for 1 hour, or until the spareribs are tender when pierced with a knife and the sauce is thick enough to lightly coat a spoon. Transfer to a plate and skim excess fat from sauce. Pour sauce over the spareribs. Serve immediately.

SUPER EASY CHINESE SWEET N' SOUR RIBS

Steps:

• Boil about 1 L of water in a pot, or enough to cover the ribs.
• Carefully drop the ribs in the boiling water, stir til outside browns, roughly 1 minute (this is to clean out the blood in the ribs so your sauce won't have the 'foamy stuff' later).
• Drain ribs, put in a medium sized pot big enough for the ribs to be layed down in one layer. A deeper pan will work too.
• Add rice wine, vinegar, sugar, soy sauce and water in the pot (you don't need to follow the measurements, I usually take a ladle and use 1 ladle of rice wine, 2 vinegar 3 sugar etc).
• Bring to a boil for about 10 minutes then reduce to a simmer.
• Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is very dark and almost dry or to your desired thickness, roughly half an hour.
• Be careful not to dry all the sauce out, the sauce will reduce much quicker in the final stage, so keep an eye on it.
• Serve with steamed rice and stir fried veggies for a great Chinese meal!
