Brown-buttered mash

20 minutes

Supersized tender pork ribs with sweet potato fries

Serves 4

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 10 minutes

Cooking Time 2 hours

Ingredients

4 racks pork ribs (approx. 300 g each)
200 g Muscovado sugar
1 T smoked paprika
6 cloves garlic, minced
1 T onion powder
¼ cup Worcestershire sauce
1 cup apple cider vinegar
2 cups tomato sauce
1 cup water

For the sweet potato fries:

sunflower oil, for deep-frying
3 Woolworths Kara orange sweet potatoes, very thinly sliced
salt, to taste

Method

Place the ribs into a large saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 1 hour or until the meat is soft when pierced with a sharp knife.

Drain and allow to cool and drain on a cooling rack. Preheat the oven to 200°C.

Place the remaining ingredients into a large pan and simmer for 20 minutes, or until thick. Place the ribs on a baking tray and baste well with the mixture. Roast for 30 minutes, basting often.

To make the sweet potato fries, heat the oil in a pan and fry the chips in batches. Drain on kitchen paper and season with salt.

Serve with the ribs.

Cook's note: Make double the quantity of ribs and remove the meat from the extra racks to freeze for use on burger Fridays.
