Ingredients
- 1 whole rack of pork ribs
- 1 tbsp ground cloves
- 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tbsp ground nutmeg
- 1/2 tbsp salt
- 1 tbsp ground black pepper
- 150 g apricot jam
Instructions
- Use a small pairing knife to remove the layer of sinew/connective tissue from the ribs. This will allow them to fall off the bone more easily but isn’t completely necessary if you don't want the extra effort.
- Place the ribs in an oven proof dish with high sides and evenly sprinkle on the spices. Place in an oven at 135°C (fan) for 6 hours.
- Take the ribs out and turn the heat up to 220°C. While the oven is heating up, evenly spread the apricot jam onto the ribs.
- Place the ribs back into the hot oven for 30 minutes to caramelise the jam and then serve!
