How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose good pork ribs
- Fresh ribs should have a light pink color, be elastic when pressed, and not have a sour smell.
- You should choose ribs with small, flat bones. This type has more meat and less bone compared to large, round ribs.
- For grilling, you should choose ribs that have both lean meat and fat so that they will be tender, fragrant, and richer in flavor when eaten.
- Avoid ribs that have an off smell, pale green meat, are slimy, and lack elasticity when you press them with your hand.
How to choose fresh oranges
- For this orange sauce rib dish, you should choose yellow oranges (Egyptian, American, or Australian) to enhance the flavor of the dish.
- Choose oranges with fresh skin, feel smooth and shiny to the touch, and when you gently squeeze them, essential oils should be released.
- You should select oranges that are round and firm to hold, with the bottom of the fruit being yellow. Additionally, pay attention to the crown of the orange; if it is indented compared to the surrounding surface, that indicates a juicy orange.

Prepare the pork ribs
After buying the pork ribs, cut them into bite-sized pieces. To clean off dirt and remove the fishy smell, soak them in diluted saltwater or briefly blanch them in boiling water, then rinse thoroughly with water and let them drain.
Tips for cleaning pork ribs without odor:
- Rub the ribs with salt for about 2 – 3 minutes and rinse with water.
- Using rice vinegar or alcohol to wash will also eliminate the smell of the ribs.
- You can also briefly boil the ribs in boiling water with a few smashed ginger slices, and then rinse with water.

Frying Ribs
You place a pan on the stove over medium heat, add 100ml of cooking oil (ensure the oil covers the meat), wait for the oil to heat up, then sauté 5 cloves of thinly sliced garlic until fragrant, then remove all the garlic to a plate and set aside.
After the ribs have absorbed the seasoning, coat the ribs in batter and then add them to the pan with the garlic oil, frying until the ribs are golden brown, then remove to a plate lined with paper towels.
Next, pour orange juice and honey into the pot, bring to a boil, then add the ribs and sautéed garlic, gently stir for 2 minutes, then turn off the heat.
