Time 3h

Number Of Ingredients 32

5 pounds baby back or St. Louis Style Ribs (2 racks)
1 1/2 cups sweet thai chili sauce
3/4 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons thai red curry paste
2 teaspoons fish sauce
2 tablespoons fresh ginger (grated)
2 cloves garlic (minced or grated)
pinch of pepper
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup ketchup
1/3 cup creamy peanut butter (warmed/melted)
1/4 cup sweet thai chili sauce
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 teaspoons thai red curry paste
1/2-1 tablespoon Chinese 5 spice
1 lime (juice)
1/4 cup cilantro (chopped)
4 cups cabbage (shredded, use both green and purple)
1 zucchini (cut into strips)
1 red pepper (cut into strips)
1 orange pepper. cut into strips
1 large jalapeno (seeded + chopped)
1/2 cup fresh cilantro (chopped)
1/2 cup fresh basil (chopped)
2 lime (juiced)
1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
2 tablespoons sweet thai chili sauce
1-2 tablespoons peanut butter (warmed/melted, used 2)
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon fresh ginger (grated)
1/2 cup salted peanuts (chopped)

Steps:

  • If using baby back ribs take a butter knife, wedge it just underneath the membrane to loosen and pull the membrane up and off the bone. Then just use your hands to pull the rest of the membrane off.
  • Place the ribs in a large baking dish or roasting pan.
  • In a large 4 cup glass measuring cup or bowl combine the sweet thai chili sauce, soy sauce, red curry paste, fish sauce, ginger, garlic and pepper. Whisk to combine and then pour the marinade over the ribs. Place the ribs in the fridge overnight, turning then once or twice if possible to make sure they get fully covered in the marinade.
  • The next morning or afternoon (depending on when you plan to eat) preheat the oven 300 degrees F. Cover the baking dish tightly with foil and bake for 2 1/2-6 hours (if you go the full six hours bake them at 275 degrees F.) or until very tender. Try to baste the ribs once or twice during cooking. During this time I prepare the BBQ sauce and slaw (recipes below).
  • When the ribs are done cooking preheat the grill to medium high heat and grease the grates. Remove the ribs from the baking dish and place them a baking sheet or large tray. Cover the ribs in the Peanut BBQ sauce (recipe below) and grill 3-5 minutes per side or until lightly charred. Be careful flipping the ribs as the will be very tender. Serve the ribs with more Peanut BBQ sauce and the Thai Slaw (recipes below).
  • In a large glass measuring cup or bowl whisk together the soy sauce, ketchup, warm/melted peanut butter, sweet thai chili sauce, rice vinegar, thai red curry paste, Chinese 5 spice, lime juice and cilantro. If the sauce is not mixing place it in the microwave or over the stove and warm until everything is melted together. If the sauce is to thick add water to your liking.
  • Add the cabbage, zucchini, red pepper, orange pepper, jalapeno, cilantro and basil to a large bowl. In another small bowl whisk together the lime juice, rice wine vinegar, sweet thai chili sauce, warmed/melted peanut butter, fish sauce, soy sauce and fresh ginger. Pour the dressing over the slaw and toss well to coat. Place in the fridge until ready to serve and then add the peanut. The slaw can be made the night before.

Serve lean pork tenderoin in a sweet Chinese five-spice stir-fry mix of egg noodles, sweetcorn, sugar snap peas and peppers

Provided by Lucy Netherton

Categories     Main course

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tbsp low-salt soy sauce
2 tbsp reduced salt and sugar ketchup
2 tbsp clear honey
1 tsp Chinese five-spice powder
500g piece pork tenderloin , visible fat trimmed
140g medium egg noodle
2 tsp sesame oil

320g pack mixed pepper stir-fry vegetable
small bunch spring onion , sliced

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Mix together the soy, ketchup and honey with the five-spice. Put the pork tenderloin on a baking tray and brush with just under half the sauce. Roast in the oven for 10 mins, then brush with a little extra sauce and return to the oven for a further 15 mins.
  • Meanwhile, soak the noodles in boiling water until soft. Drain, reserving about 50ml of the water. Heat the sesame oil in a wok or large frying pan, add the corn and sugar snap peas, and stir-fry for 3 mins, adding the water to help the veg steam.
  • Add the stir-fry veg and half the spring onions, and cook for 3 mins more until wilted. Tip in the noodles and the rest of the sauce. Using tongs, mix everything to combine. Remove the pork, cut into slices and serve on top of the noodles. Scatter with remaining spring onions.
