Coke Pork Ribs with Garnish

Sweet and Sour Pork Ribs (排骨王) is a perennial favourite in my family. It is a pork rib dish marinated in a sweet and tangy sauce. We love it so much that it is a frequent dish on our table whenever we dine out at Zhu Chao (煮炒) stalls - cheaper version of Chinese restaurants.

Four years ago, I saw a recipe for this version of pork ribs and gave it a try. It was a hit then and I cooked it again for tonight’s dinner with some variations to the original recipe.

If you prefer the pork ribs to be of a tantalizing dark brown colour, you can add an additional ½ tablespoon of dark soy sauce to simmer with the coke.
