5-Ingredient Baked Pork Ribs (Video)

Here comes my favourite baked pork rib dish. You only need 5 ingredients to make it. Best of all, you don’t even need to marinate the pork ribs in advance. Simply mix all the ingredients together and pop into an oven. 

The pork ribs will become very tasty and tender after a slow-baking process without any fuss. They are best served immediately with salad or rice. Sounds good, right?

One simple secret tip on making tasty and succulent baked ribs you want to know. Cut the pork ribs separately beforehand. It’ll do the magic.

I used double-layer foil to wrap and enclose the pork ribs and seasonings. It saved me a lot of time from cleaning the baking tray as well.

After putting the wrapped pork ribs in the preheated oven. You can sit back and relax. When the preset time is up, remove the top layer foil, brush some juice from the parcel on the pork rib surface. Boil for about 5 minutes to finish off by browning the surface.

These baked pork ribs are finger-lickin' good. Click to view the tutorial video!
