Filipino Pork Sinigang

My cooking is global with some emphasis on Japanese cooking. Made all the recipes with starred rating. You can also find me at eatyourbooks.com cooking from cookbooks, online recipes, magazines and recipes from here.

1 ½ lb pork spare ribs, chopped into small pieces (see note)

1 generous pinch of salt

45g seedless tamarind pulp or 4 to 5 Tbsp tamarind juice

½ large red or yellow onion, roughly chopped

2 roma tomatoes, large dice

2 Tbsp fish sauce

3 heads baby bok choy, water spinach or other greens you like in soup

1 cup long beans or green beans, cut into 1″-2″ pieces

2 cups taro root, large cubes

Thai chilies, crushed just until broken

note: Note: You can buy chopped up spare ribs at Asian butchers. If you cannot find it, you can simply use a rack of ribs, separated into individual bones; it’s just gonna be a bit harder to sear and to eat. You can also substitute other kinds of meat; however, if using boneless meat, you MUST use a good stock instead of water, otherwise your soup will be really weak in flavour and body.
