Braised Spareribs With Pineapple Recipes

PINEAPPLE AND MOLASSES SPARERIBS

Steps:

• Place ribs in a large plastic bag and set aside. In a bowl, combine lime zest and juice, soy sauce, chilies, ginger, oil and 2 tablespoons molasses. Add star anise, cinnamon, onion and pineapple juice, and stir to mix well. Add contents of bowl to bag, seal bag well, and refrigerate overnight.
• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Remove ribs from refrigerator, and pour contents of bag, including marinade, into a roasting pan. Allow ribs to come to room temperature. Cover pan tightly with foil, place in oven, and bake for 1 hour, turning ribs once halfway through cooking. Remove pan from oven (leave oven on), discard foil, and carefully spoon only the liquid from pan into a saucepan. Return pan to oven, and continue to bake ribs uncovered.
• Add remaining 2 tablespoons molasses to saucepan, and place over medium heat. Cook until mixture is foamy and syrupy, about 10 minutes.
• Remove ribs from oven, and pour sauce over them, turning ribs until they are well coated. Transfer to a large platter, and serve.
