Miso Pork Ribs with Korean Glaze

During the coronavirus pandemic, local companies around my area have been adapting - as I'm sure they have around the world. My favourite being local restaurants temporarily turning into takeaways (which I obviously support, triple fried chicken burger with triple cheese and triple bacon anyone?). A very close second favourite conversion, is butchers doing deliveries. Every couple of weeks, me and my housemate place an order for the likes of sausages, steaks, burgers, koftas and beef mince. This week, we decided to get a rack of ribs for our Saturday night dinner and the butchers did not disappoint. We got a rack of very meaty ribs. 

Soy & Honey Lamb Shank

Turkey Katsu

Egg Foo Young (Cantonese Style)

Korean (Not)Fried Chicken

Chicken & Oyster Mushroom Stir Fry

Asian Pulled Pork

This is a rather unique way of using red bean paste; something usually reserved for Chinese desserts. But not having much of a sweet tooth myself, I found another use for it: Asian-inspired pulled pork. This pulled pork is rather sweet, but that's off-set by the saltiness of the soy sauce and tangy acidity of the vinegar. 

Kung Pao Chicken

After doing a bit of research into Kung Pao chicken, I found that there are a few different versions depending upon the region of origination in China. So this has become a bit of a mix up of those recipes and I've omitted some of the chillies - my heat tolerance is still pretty low - but feel free to throw in a few dried chillies along with the chicken. My recipe will give you an almost sweet and sour flavour with a background note of heat from the chilli sauce.

Zha Jiang Mian (Fried Sauce Noodles)

This recipe came about after I found some beef mince in the freezer and did a bit of research into Chinese noodle dishes using minced beef and pork.

Sweet Soy Glazed Pork Ribs

This recipe is delicious. I know that sounds sort of big headed. But it is. It's sweet, salty, moreish.
Don't be limited to pork ribs though. The glaze is also good with fried chicken, salmon or prawns.
