Ingredients
-
In a large bowl, mix together the soy sauce, ginger, five-spice powder, chilli flakes, garlic and 3 1⁄2 tablespoons of the sunflower oil. Add the pork and toss to coat.
-
Cover the top with cling film, and marinate in the refrigerator for 24 hours, shaking occasionally.
-
Drain the pork through a colander into a saucepan. Put a heavy frying pan with the remaining sunflower oil over a medium heat. When very hot, add the ribs a few at a time and sear, transferring to the saucepan with the marinade when browned. Bring the contents of the saucepan to the boil, reduce the heat and cover with a lid. Simmer gently for 30–45 minutes until the meat is tender.
-
Remove the lid and stir in the honey. Increase the heat and reduce the sauce, tossing and stirring until the water content has evaporated and the ribs are covered with a rich glaze. Serve warm.
