Method
- 1
Cut the pork ribs into individual ribs. Melt the caster sugar in a large pot until it turns a deep amber caramel.
- 2
Carefully add the fish sauce and 200ml water, then stir in the chopped garlic and shallots.
- 3
Add the ribs, turning to coat, cover and simmer for 50 minutes, turning occasionally, until the meat is tender and no pink remains.
- 4
Uncover and simmer for a further 10 minutes to reduce the sauce to a sticky glaze.
- 5
Scatter with sliced chilli and spring onions and serve with rice.
