Chinese Ribs and Lo Mein

   The other night I was on the hunt for something fun to cook, I went through my recipes from past classes and spotted these Chinese ribs that were so so delicious. Looking for a side I decided to try out Lo Mein.

For the Ribs you need

Country style ribs

½ oz Ketchup

½ oz Soy Sauce

½ oz Rice wine vinegar

½ oz Sake

Salt and pepper to taste

1. Place the ribs on a cooling rack over a little water, season with salt and pepper. Cook at 375°F for 30 minutes
2. Mix all the other ingredients together.
3. Coat them in sauce and bake for another 15 minutes.
4. Check and make sure they are at 145°F internal. Add the rest of the sauce on top and let sit for about 20 minutes.

For the Lo Mein

3 tbsp soy sauce

1 tsp sesame oil

1 tsp sugar dissolved in 1 tsp hot water

2 tsp ground ginger

2 tsp garlic powder

1 garlic clove, finally chopped

8 oz sliced mushrooms

1 package of KAME Hokkien Stir Fry Noodles (spaghetti works as well)

1. Combine the first 4 ingredients and set aside.
2. Open both packets of noodles and put into skillet or wok with a bit of oil to warm them up. Once they are soft and warmed up  put them on a plate to the side.
3. Add 1 tbsp of oil into the pan and let warm. Then add in the garlic and sauté until fragrant. Add in the  mushrooms and saute until they are soft and shrank a bit. 
4. Add the noodles back and stir in the sauce. Mix until the noodles are all evenly coated in sauce.
