Braised Pork Ribs in Claypot

This is an old fashion way of braising pork ribs in a claypot.  Simple ingredients and yet tasty with rice.  Ribs are very ginger flavoured.  In meat dishes with ginger, I'll go for the ginger first before other ingredients.  They are so tasty.

Recipe Source - Yum Yum Magazine No. 89 [modified]
Ingredients
[serves 4-6]
600 gm spare ribs - cut in pieces
10 tofu puffs [taupok] - washed, squeezed dry and keep whole
10 slices of young ginger
1 tbsp oil
600 ml water
some spring onions - garnishing
Seasoning
1 tbsp each of oyster sauce, shaoxing wine and light soy sauce
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp dark soy sauce
  1. Blanch pork ribs in boiling water for several minutes.  Rinse with clean water and drained.
  2. Heat oil in wok, saute ginger until fragrant.  Add in pork ribs and seasoning.  Stir fry to mix well.
  3. Add in water, bring to boil for several minutes.
  4. Transfer to claypot, add in tofu puffs and more water just to cover the ingredients.
  5. Bring to boil, taste to adjust seasoning.  Lower to medium low heat and simmer ribs for another 45 minutes or until ribs are tender.
  6. Garnish with spring onions, serve ribs in claypot with rice.

  6. Kimmy, I love braised dishes for their simplicity and good taste. I have a claypot but scared to use. I am afraid it might crack when heated.

  7. Hi Jozelyn, this claypot was given to me by a close friend more than 10 years ago. I cooked soup and many braising dishes with it.

  8. Hi Phong Hong, you should use it and if it cracks, it's time to discard it, hahaha! otherwise you wouldn't know its uses. That's my attitude these days with things in the house and food. Trying my best not to keep too many useless things in the house.

  10. Hi Joyce, this dish is good for me cos' it means no last minute cooking before meals. I just need to warm it up before serving and the family gets to enjoy a tasty dish without me sweating in the kitchen in the evening, hehehe!
