Coke is the secret ingredient in these sweet, sticky ribs. Recipe by Michael Weldon, MasterChef Australia Series 3 contestant.
- Preheat oven to 140C. Combine the pork ribs, onion, star anise, chilli flakes and cinnamon in a large roasting pan. Add the Coca-Cola. Cover with foil. Bake for 1 1/2 hours.
- Transfer the pork to a plate. Strain the cooking liquid into a medium saucepan. Add the pineapple juice, sugar and tomato puree and bring to the boil. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 20 mins or until sauce thickens slightly.
- Meanwhile, combine the red and white cabbage, carrot, spring onion, mayonnaise, mustard and lemon juice in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
- Preheat a barbecue or chargrill pan over medium heat. Brush the ribs with the sauce to coat. Cook, turning and basting with the sauce, for 5 mins or until sticky and heated through. Divide ribs among serving plates. Serve with the slaw and the remaining sauce on the side.
