Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 First of all, we need to prepare all the ingredients needed to make this [Sweet and Sour Pork Ribs]. First, cut the green onions into slices, the ginger into slices, and the green onions into chopped green onions. Clean the spareribs and chop them into sparerib segments with a knife. Then make a sweet and sour sauce, the ratio is: 1 spoon cooking wine, 2 spoons soy sauce, 3 spoons sugar, 4 spoons vinegar, 5 spoons water.

   

2. 2 Add an appropriate amount of water to the soup pot and bring to a boil over high heat. Add the pork ribs and blanch them to remove the blood. Then pour out the water used to blanch the ribs in the pot, wash the ribs, add boiling water to cover the ribs, add green onion slices, ginger slices, star anise and cooking wine. Bring the pot to a boil over high heat, then turn to medium-low heat and simmer until the ribs are chewable, then remove and drain the water and set aside. Don't throw away the soup used to cook the ribs. You can use it to cook noodles or make stock.

   

3. 3 Heat the wok over medium heat until hot, pour in the peanut oil, turn to high heat and heat until the oil is hot. Add the chopped green onion and ginger slices and sauté over low heat. Add the ribs and stir-fry over low heat until both sides of the ribs are golden brown.

   

4. 4 Pour in the prepared sweet and sour sauce until the sauce is basically flush with the ribs. Bring to a boil over high heat, then turn to low heat to reduce the sauce, and sprinkle with an appropriate amount of white sesame seeds.

   

5. 5 Wait until the soup is reduced and then stir-fry the ribs to absorb the flavor. Be careful not to completely dry up the soup. You can leave a little to mix with the rice. Just before serving, sprinkle with chopped green onions, and the sweet and sour pork ribs are ready.
