Orange-Soy Braised Pork

Ribs were on sale again, but instead of slow cooking them like usual, I decided to go with braising them. It turned out really well - savory and tender. Taken mostly from this recipe (1). Here's how it went:

• 4 lbs Country Style Pork Ribs (1/2" cubed)
• 2 heads Garlic (minced)
• 3 tbsp Ginger (minced)
  
• 2 1/2 cups Orange Juice
• 3/4 cup Soy Sauce
• 1/4 cup Sugar
• 1 tbsp White Pepper
• 1 tbsp Salt
  

Cube and salt the ribs and set aside. Heat oil in a large pan (or two pans) to medium-high heat and saute 2/3 of the minced garlic in it. When the garlic begins to brown, pour in the rest of the garlic, ginger, orange juice, and soy sauce. Bring to boil and dissolve the sugar within. Sprinkle pepper and mix. Add cubed pork in one layer on the pan and bring to boil again (if one pan isn't enough, divide the sauce in two and use two pans). Lower heat to simmer and let sit for at least 1 1/2 hours.

Ribs on sale coming up to $5, including the rest of the ingredients, it amounts to around $7. Served with rice, feeding 5 people with seconds, with half a pan of leftovers remaining (we cooked the meat in two pans). Enjoy.
