蜜汁烤肋排

Honey-Glazed Roast Pork Ribs — a Chinese recipe made with pork baby back ribs, honey, ready in about 150 minutes. Step-by-step instructions with photos.

Ingredients

• pork baby back ribs
• light soy sauce
• honey
• star anise
• ginger

Instructions

1. Rinse ribs and pat dry. In a large pot, cover ribs with cold water. Add ginger and star anise. Bring to boil, then reduce heat and simmer gently for 45 minutes.
2. Drain ribs and reserve 60 ml of cooking liquid. Let ribs cool completely on a wire rack—this prevents steaming and ensures crisp edges.
3. In a saucepan, combine light soy sauce, honey, and reserved cooking liquid. Simmer over medium-low heat for 5 minutes until reduced by one-third and slightly thickened.
4. Brush ribs generously with warm glaze. Place on a foil-lined baking sheet, spaced apart. Roast at 180°C (350°F) for 25 minutes.
5. Increase oven to 220°C (425°F). Brush again with glaze and roast 8–10 minutes until edges are dark amber and sauce forms a sticky, glossy crust.
