Braised Spareribs with Pineapple

One of my favorite Thai dishes, and this one isn't spicy at all...although I'm sure you can make it spicy if you want!

Ingredients
  

  • 400 grams pork spareribs cut into 2 inch pieces
  • 1 cup fresh pineapple sliced into chunks
  • 1/4 cup ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 3/4 cup pineapple juice or orange
  • 1 tablespoon seasoning sauce
  • 1 tablespoon palm sugar
  • 1 teaspoon white peppercorn
  • 1 teaspoon coriander root roughly chopped
  • 1-2 garlic cloves roughly chopped
  • 2 cups chicken stock

Instructions
 

  • In a mortar, combine peppercorn, garlic and coriander and pound to a paste.
  • Mix the peppercorn mixture with ketchup, soy sauce, seasoning sauce, palm sugar and stir well.
  • Add mixture to pork and combine well. You can let marinate in refrigerator for an hour or two if you have time.
  • Add pork mixture to pot and add chicken stock and juice and combine well.
  • Add pineapple to the pot and simmer over low heat until the spareribs are tender and sauce is thick, about 45 minutes to an hour.
