Rice topping : sweet and spicy pork spare ribs
November 8, 2004
Filed under Filipino food, Meat recipes, Rice recipes
A favorite item in most Chinese restaurants’ menu, rice topping simply means a bowl of rice topped with a saucy meat, seafood or vegetable dish. To top my rice, I used pork spare ribs that is a combination of the traditional sweet and sour pork and pork aloha. The pork spare ribs had been pre-cut in the supermarket. The length of the bones is two to two-and-a-half inches. I just had to cut the meat in segments so that each piece had a bone in it. To make the dish a little spicier than the usual sweet and sour pork, I added three pieces of siling haba (green chilis).
In the mood for more food?

thanks for sharing this recipe!:smile:
i’ve always loved browsing through websites and cookbooks, marking and copying recipes that i’d like to try if and when i have the resources for some of the ingredients…but this is the first website that i came across with recipes that i can actually cook in real time!
i came across it while looking for a recipe for beef steak, i tried the bistek recipe last sunday and it was an instant hit…my friends did not leave the table until ALL the bistek were gone! the next recipe that i tried come monday lunch was this particular recipe…and again…yet another hit!
thank you very much for posting your recipes…it really made my day…as a matter of fact, ever since i didcovered your website i always have it up in my computer!
thanks again!
You’re welcome, Arlene.
I’m so glad, Marione. It has always been my complaint about traditional cookbooks that they don’t make you feel confident or inspired enough to really cook. Most cookbooks just make you want to ogle at the photos. And I don’t want that…
