Post #94

been v slack with food posting... but i havent been slack with cooking! although i havent been cooking as frequently as i normally would.

have tried out a few recipes with mixed results. this is one of them.

it all started with some discounted fresh corn... coupled with seeing some photos of ribs that my cousin cooked for fathers day, which led to the idea of cooking pork ribs to go with the corn!! then gary's *from masterchef* sticky ribs recipe came to mind! drooling :p~~


-Sticky pork ribs-

three things went v wrong with my ribs... firstly the ribs that sis bought were extremely thick. secondly i forgot to sear the ribs before placing them in the oven for braising *bad bad of me*. thirdly i dont have a heavy duty roasting pan as recommended by gary... the combined result is that what took gary to braise in 1.5 hours took me 4 hours... =.=#

the ribs have a v nice sweet and sour taste to it, and a hint of spiciness from the chilli. as nice as it was, i cant really justify the 4-hour-non-stop-braising in the oven... so may not cook again.

preparing the corn:


-Baked butter corn-

so simple and should work with bbq too! unwrap the skin but without pulling them out, give the corn a good wash, then pat dry and brush some butter on it, and sprinkle with a bit of salt. wrap the skin back, and place in the oven! easy! the corns were soooooo sweet~~~!!!
