Pork Ribs Adobo
When you’re looking for something different from barbecue, try this recipe for Filipino pork ribs adobo. You’ll love these perfectly fall-off-the-bone ribs using just eight simple ingredients. Pour the delicious sauce over a bed of rice and serve them alongside your favourite veg. Dude especially loves the slight tanginess of the sauce but that’s what is so great about this recipe. You can adjust the flavours however you like. If you like more tang, up the vinegar or not so sweet, add less sugar.Alternatively, marinate the ribs at least an hour up to overnight and grill the ribs on the barbecue. In a small pot on high heat, reduce the marinade. Baste the ribs with the sauce until browned and caramelized. You can also cook them low and slow in the oven. But in the summer heat, I prefer using my electric pressure cooker.
