Recipe: Chinese Pork Ribs with Daikon and Dried Oysters (白萝卜蚝干焖排骨)
Ingredients:
1/2 pound pork ribs
1 daikon/turnip (medium-sized)
6-8 dried oysters (rinsed and soaked in water for 15 minutes)
1 tablespoon wolfberries/goji berries
1 1/2 tablespoons Chinese rice wine
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1/2 cup water
Salt to taste
Sugar to taste
1/2 tablespoon oil
6 cloves shallots (peeled)
Method:
Heat up a wok or claypot (preferred) and add in the oil. Sauté the shallots until slightly aromatic, then add in the dried oysters and daikon. Do a few quick stirs, follow by the pork ribs, rice wine, soy sauce, and water. Lower the heat to between medium and low, and then cover it up with a lid. Braise for about 20-30 minutes or until the water reduces and thickens. Add salt and sugar to taste and serve hot immediately.
Cook’s Notes:
- If you don’t like pork ribs, you can use chicken drumsticks. Just cut the chicken drumsticks into pieces, with bones in.
- You can use Japanese sake if you don’t have Chinese rice wine.

Testing.

Bee- I like all these things individually but I wouldn’t have thought to put these ingredients together — your dish looks great.
Your site always inspire me to try new stuff! I have never tried daikon before but may just give it a try as this dish looks like it will taste great!
Well said that cooking is an act of discovery, perhaps art of discovery too!
Lovely dish!
this is new to me. I have never thought of pairing pork ribs with daikon before, except for soup. I have to try this out some day…
I love and miss “hou see” so much..! someone send me some..!! and fatt choy pleaseeeee..! muahhaha!!

yeah, i get what you mean.. it’s not easy to take a good picture out of such mono-color dish. But you’ve successfully made the dish looks appetising, great job!
Hi RasaMalaysia,
I did not have some of the ingredients and made some adjustments :
1. Streaky pork instead of pork ribs
2. Carrots instead of turnip
3. Dried scallops instead of dried oysters
4. ShaoXing wine instead of rice wine
of course, they tasted good to me! But thanks to you, I now have an extra recipe to use :)
Braised daikon with pork ribs and dried oysters sounds like a rich yummy dish.
