Spare Ribs

Ingredients6 pounds pork spareribs
2 medium onions, cut into wedges
1 medium onion, finely chopped
6 tablespoons soy sauce
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
6 whole star anise pods
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
1/2 cup honey
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon lemon juice

Directions1.Place ribs in a 5 to 6 quart stock pot with the 2 wedged onions, 4 tablespoons of the soy sauce, pepper and star anise. Bring all to a boil. Reduce heat to medium low, cover and let simmer in meat juices until ribs are tender when pierced, about 1 1/4 hours. Stir occasionally.
2.Meanwhile, heat oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add remaining chopped onion and saute, stirring often, until onion is soft. Blend in the ginger, honey, sugar, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice and remaining 2 tablespoons of soy sauce. Cook all together, stirring, until well blended. Remove from heat.
3.Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
4.Using tongs, remove ribs from stock pot and arrange in a single layer in an 11x16 inch baking dish. Brush evenly with the honey mixture and bake in the preheated oven, basting often with pan drippings, about 30 minutes or until ribs are well glazed.

We bought nice pork ribs last weekend. I have to re-pack them for 1 meal each and the left, I cooked them in stir fry and Mcj asked if it was pork. He thought, I'm going to cook the ribs as ribs, not stir fry.. so I have to look up for the recipe. We will have ribs on the weekend (when most people might be on payday advances).
