How to Cook Spare Ribs Hamonado

Start by cutting the ribs into bite-sized pieces. Marinate the ribs in pineapple juice. I used the juice from the canned pineapple chunks. Do this by separating the juice from the chunks. Set the chunks aside, it will be used later in the process.

Marinating in pineapple juice provide flavor to the ribs and it also helps tenderize the meat. The longer the marinating time, the better the result will be.

Once done marinating, separate the remaining pineapple juice that was used as marinade. Set it aside for now. Saute onion and garlic and add the marinated ribs once the onion softens. Cook until ribs turn light brown. Pour-in the remaining pineapple juice next and then add beef broth and soy sauce. Let the liquid boil.

The meat on the ribs needs to cook until it tenderizes. Do this by adjusting heat between low to medium. Add pineapple chunks, cover the pan, and then boil for 1 hour. You may add water if you think that the sauce is about to get dry.

Finish by adding brown sugar and seasoning with salt and ground black pepper as needed.

This dish is best enjoyed with warm rice. I recommend topping this over newly cooked rice. Try this spare ribs hamonado recipe
