Servings: 4
Calories: 120kcal
Ingredients
- 1 slab about 3 lbs pork baby back ribs
- 1 cup soy sauce
- 1/2 cup ketchup
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp ground ginger or a quarter-sized slice of fresh ginger
- 3 large garlic cloves crushed
- 1/4 cup mirin sweet saki or dry sherry
- 1 piece star anise optional
- Plum Sauce for glazing*
Instructions
- Prepare ribs by removing the silver skin (membrane) that covers the bones along the back. This prevents curling and shrinking. You may use your hands or needle-nose pliers to do this. Set ribs aside.
- Prepare marinade by mixing the remaining ingredients in a bowl. Stir until sugar is dissolved. Pour marinade in a large zipper freezer bag; place ribs in the bag (you may have to cut the slab of ribs in half). Seal bag and turn a few times to coat the ribs with the marinade. Set on a plate and place in the refrigerator overnight.
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Remove ribs from marinade and place on a rack on a baking sheet. Discard marinade. Roast ribs for 2 hrs.
- Place cooked ribs on a cutting board and cut into individual ribs. This is easier if you do it bone-side up. Brush with plum sauce and serve.
- * Plum sauce is available in the Asian section of your supermarket. You may also use plum jam or a glaze made of honey with a few drops of soy sauce added.
