Sweet and sour pork ribs are a classic Chinese dish with good color and flavor, which is moderately sweet and sour, and has a crispy taste, which is deeply loved by people. Today, I'm going to give you a detailed look at how to make this delicious dish at home.
First of all, we need to prepare the following ingredients: 500 grams of pork ribs, 3 slices of ginger, 1 green onion, cooking wine, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, sugar, aged vinegar, salt, chicken essence, and cooking oil.
Next, we wash the pork ribs, chop them into small pieces, and marinate them in cooking wine, light soy sauce, and ginger slices for about 20 minutes to allow the ribs to fully absorb the flavor.
Then, we started making sweet and sour sauce. In a bowl, add an appropriate amount of sugar, aged vinegar, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, salt, chicken essence and an appropriate amount of water, stir well until the sugar is completely dissolved. The taste of the sweet and sour sauce can be adjusted according to personal preference, you can add more sugar if you prefer it to be sweeter, and more vinegar if you prefer it to be sour.
Next, we started cooking the ribs. Drain the marinated pork ribs, fry them in hot oil over low heat until golden brown, remove the drained oil and set aside. Note that the heat should not be too high when frying pork ribs, so as not to affect the taste of the fried ribs.
Next, we started stir-frying the sweet and sour pork ribs. Leave the bottom oil in the pot, add ginger slices and green onions and stir-fry until fragrant, then pour in the fried pork ribs and stir-fry evenly. Next, pour the sweet and sour sauce into the pan and stir-fry evenly so that the ribs are fully coated with sweet and sour sauce. At this point, you can adjust the amount of sweet and sour sauce to suit your taste.
Finally, cover the pot and simmer over low heat for about 10 minutes to allow the ribs to fully absorb the flavor of the sweet and sour sauce. When the soup is thickened, sprinkle some chopped green onions to garnish and enjoy.
There are many steps to make sweet and sour pork ribs, but once you master the main points, you can easily make delicious sweet and sour pork ribs. I hope that everyone can try to make this classic dish at home and taste the deliciousness and happiness in it.
