How to Make Braised Pork Rib with Fresh Milk
-
Prepare the Pork Rib
Wash the pork ribs with diluted salt water, then rinse with clean water.
To prevent the meat from puffing when frying, use a knife to make a few light cuts on the outer connective tissue.
Use a mallet (or the back of a knife) to pound the pork ribs to tenderize them.
-
Marinate the Pork Rib
First, put garlic and chili in a mortar and pound them into a paste.
Marinate the meat with 1/2 tablespoon of seasoning powder, 1/2 teaspoon of monosodium glutamate, 50ml of sweetened fresh milk, 2 tablespoons of fish sauce, 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce, 2 tablespoons of chili sauce along with the pounded garlic and chili, and mix well.
Marinate the ribs for at least 1 hour to allow the ribs to absorb the seasoning evenly.

Braised Ribs
Put a pan on the stove, add about 2 tablespoons of cooking oil into the pan. Wait for the oil to heat up, then add the pork ribs to fry on medium heat for about 10 minutes, flipping the meat every 1 – 2 minutes.
Fry until both sides of the meat turn a nice golden color, then add 1 bowl of water (rice bowl), and increase the heat. Add 3 tablespoons of sugar and cook until the water in the pot thickens.
After braising for about 10 minutes, the sauce will evenly coat and stick around the piece of meat, completing the dish.
