👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Firstly clean the ribs and then soak in clean water for 15 minutes.

3. 3Add around 1 tablespoon of oil in wok or pan and fry the ribs with middle fire until the surface becomes slightly browned. This step can improve the aroma. Then add ketchup, salt, light soy sauce, vinegar, sugar and enough water to cover the ribs. The simmer for 25 minutes over slow fire. Stay covered.
