Directions
Vietnamese Lemongrass Spareribs, From the What seems to be now very expensive cookbook The simple art of Vietnamese cooking The first time I made this I couldn’t find lemongrass so used lemongrass oil–it’s not the same as using the real deal –EDIT– these are supposed to be a little charred (or burnt) Asian ribs tend to be this way Also if you use a mortar for the lemongrass and onions, there will be no big pieces that can burn , I did this recipe twice This recipe can be really good and the outcome near-restaurant quality, but there are a few flaws Here are the corrections : 1 INGREDIENTS – should be 2 TABLESPOONS fish sauce 2 Cooking time – 30 minutes – the problem with this is that by that time, the onions and lemongrass are already burning Cooking time should be shortened then by first baking on low heat for about 10 minutes in a preheated oven and then drastically increase heat for the last 10-15 minutes so that the spareribs turn brown Immediately remove OR Remove marinade from marinating and coat the spareribs with marinade only during the last 15 minutes of cooking The result of all this is a subtle Asian lemongrass flavor but the sweetness pervades Since my family wants a stronger taste, we doubled the amount of fish sauce and white wine Do not double amount sugar Then follow cooking directions to avoid burning of onions and lemongrass Will turn out better , From the What seems to be now very expensive cookbook The simple art of Vietnamese cooking The first time I made this I couldn’t find lemongrass so used lemongrass oil–it’s not the same as using the real deal –EDIT– these are supposed to be a little charred (or burnt) Asian ribs tend to be this way Also if you use a mortar for the lemongrass and onions, there will be no big pieces that can burn
