Tender Ribs With A Sweet Soy Sauce Glaze
What’s for dinner tonight? Um… THIS IS! Get ready to tuck into these tender ribs that’s coated in a honey, garlic and soy sauce glaze. Let’s get cooking…

I’m yet to think of a better trio than garlic, soy sauce and honey. It’s one of my much-loved flavour combos, and when you coat this beauty over ribs… uh it’s just utterly sensational!
I used pork ribs that’s boiled for a little bit, then coated in a glaze, and finally it’s put in the oven to char and caramelise. They always come out so tender and juicy!
Of course, if you want, you can skip boiling the meat first and only cook it in the oven. However, I think it’s definitely worth boiling first because it makes the texture so much softer.

Recipe Ingredients
Here are the few ingredients I used to make this recipe:
- Glaze Mixture: To make the glaze, I mixed together soy sauce, garlic paste and honey in a small mixing bowl. I used shop-bought garlic paste to save time, but you can freshly ground garlic cloves instead. Alternatively, you can use garlic granules or garlic powder.
- Pork Ribs: The ribs I use were pre-diced, but you can use a rack of ribs and cut them yourself. I prefer using meaty ribs over fattier ones, as they don’t caramelise as well.
- Extra Seasonings: I like to add salt, diced spring onions, Shaoxing wine and garlic paste to the water the ribs are boiled in. Feel free to chuck in whatever spices and seasonings you like. Occasionally, I also add pieces of root ginger too.
