Steps

  1. Chop the freshly bought short ribs into small pieces, wash and drain them and set aside. PS: Small ribs means that the bone in the middle is cylindrical, about the same size as chopsticks! The short ribs are the best among the spareribs. They are fat and thin, and the bones are small

  6. Pour an appropriate amount of cooking oil into the pot, pour the rock sugar and then add half a bowl of water! PS: The purpose of adding it is to make the rock sugar melt faster, and also to prevent it from sticking to the pan during the later stages of frying!

  8. After the syrup is fried, pour the previously fried ribs into the pot and stir-fry until browned! PS: Xiaokai doesn’t like soy sauce, so I usually use this method if I can use syrup to color!

  9. After coloring, pour an appropriate amount of water into the pot, just enough to cover the ribs, not too much! Add salt, brown sugar cubes, white vinegar, cover and cook over high heat for ten minutes! PS: Adding vinegar can make the meat cook faster, and you can also add less salt than usual for cooking. After all, it is sweet and sour!

  10. After 10 minutes, the bones and meat will separate. At this time, add vinegar and stir-fry for 3 minutes before serving! Compared to the commonly used white vinegar for sourness, Xiaokai prefers the taste of mature vinegar. White vinegar has a strong smell, but mature vinegar does not. If you don't like it, you can still use white vinegar, it depends on your taste!
