Spicy Vietnamese Spare Ribs
Sep 10 '00
I love to cook and experiment with all kinds of food. I especially enjoy eating and cooking Asian dishes. My wife and I enjoy eating a variety of dishes at the various restaurants we visit, and then we like to come home and try our hands at replicating those dishes.
Both of us enjoy a grilled pork dish we eat at Pho Van in Portland, Oregon, so I have tried to develop a marinade for pork to make at home. Although this marinade is a bit more spicy than the dish at Pho Van, we were very pleased when we ate these spare ribs last night.
Vietnamese Marinade for Pork
Ingredients:
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup fish sauce
6 cloves garlic
1/2 onion, chopped
5-6 red Thai peppers
2 tablespoons cilantro, minced
2 tablespoons lemon grass, minced
1 teaspoon ginger
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 Lbs pork spare ribs, cut into pieces that will fit into your ziploc bag
In a food processor blend the sugar, garlic, peppers, cilantro, and onion. Stir in the fish sauce, lemon grass, ginger and black pepper. Place ribs into a large ziploc bag and pour marinade into bag over ribs. remove air from bag to ensure marinade is covering all the ribs, seal and refrigerate overnight or at least 8 hours. Grill the ribs over charcoal for the best flavor. Use the remaining marinade to baste the ribs as you grill them. Discard any uncooked marinade.
