Notes

  • Note 1 Pork spare ribs: these are individually cut ribs that are larger than baby back ribs. You will be able to source them from your local grocery store or butcher.
  • Note 2 Honey: this sweet, sticky syrup is an excellent ingredient to use in marinades as it blends subtly with a multitude of other ingredients.
  • Note 3 Soy sauce: regular, not dark soy is used for the recipe. You have the option when purchasing to choose a salt reduced version.
  • Note 4 Garlic: used to add a lovely depth of flavour to the marinade. The recipe calls for minced, you can also used finely chopped cloves (1 to 2) should you wish to 😉👍.
  • Note 5 Ginger: a great pairing to the flavours of honey, soy and garlic. Again the recipe calls for minced and for this ingredient I recommend sticking to that as to not let the ginger flavour overpower any of the other ingredients in the recipe.
  • Note 6 Sweet chilli sauce: an optional ingredient, but you will find that it helps add a lovely sweetness to the ribs.
  • Note 7 Salt and pepper: a small amount of each of these is added to the sauce to help season the ribs.
