Braised Pork Ribs With Pumpkin

Braised pork ribs with pumpkin is another easy to cook and very tasty dish which goes well with rice or even noodles.

I cooked this in a wok. It would be better if this is cooked in a claypot.

Ingredients:
1) Pork ribs
2) 1/2 a medium sized pumpkin, cut into wedges (Japanese pumpkins taste better and have a better texture)
3) Organic miso paste or you can also use tau cheong. I used organic miso paste, about 2 tablespoons.
4) Soy sauce
5) Pepper
6) Chinese cooking wine (Tsiao Heng Chau)
7) About 1 tablespoon of brown sugar
8) Minced garlic

Method:
1) Marinate the pork ribs with a little soy sauce, chinese cooking wine and pepper for a couple of hours or longer.
2) Brown the minced garlic and miso paste or tau cheong for about 5 minutes.
3) Add in the pork ribs. Shallow fry with enough oil for about 15-20 minutes until they turn brown. Add in the brown sugar.
4) Pour in about 20 ounces of water (or water enough to cover all the pork ribs) and cover the wok. Let the pork ribs simmer in low fire for about 1 - 1.5 hours, then add in the pumpkin wedges.




5) Let the pumpkin and pork ribs cook for another half an hour or until the meat is soft and tender. Toss and turn occasionally. Add more water if the water is beginning to dry up.

6) Dish out and serve while it's piping hot!
