Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs pork spare ribs
1 tablespoon granulated white sugar
2 tablespoons light soy sauce
1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
1 tablespoon Shaoxing cooking wine
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 cup water
1 tablespoon minced ginger
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 green onion (thinly sliced)
Instructions:
Clean pork ribs:
Cut your spare ribs into bite size pieces. In a medium pot with a lid, add pork ribs and water to cover. Bring the water to a boil or until scum floats to the top (about 12 minutes). Drain into a colander in the sink and rinse well.
Season:
Wash pot thoroughly and return to stove. Add parboiled ribs, sugar, soy sauce, dark soy sauce, Shaoxing cooking wine, rice vinegar, water (1 cup), ginger, and garlic.
Simmer:
Cover and simmer for 35 minutes, tossing halfway for even cooking.
Thicken sauce:
Remove the lid and continue cooking until sauce has thickened and coats ribs (about 3 minutes).
Serve:
Garnish with thinly sliced green onions and serve with rice or noodles for a complete meal.
