Chinese Claypot Rice with Thit Suon Kho Ngu Vi (Vietnamese Braised Spare Ribs with Five-Spice)

Chinese Claypot Rice with Thit Suon Kho Ngu Vi (Vietnamese Braised Spare Ribs with Five-Spice) 1

OK, so now you know how to cook rice on the stove top. If you've done it in a claypot, you can keep the rice cooking a little bit longer if you want a nice crispy crust. But even better is if you combine it with seasoned spare ribs. Obviously, I go with the Vietnamese version, Thit Suon Kho Ngu Vi (Vietnamese Braised Spare Ribs with Five-Spice).

So good that the day before lil' sis and I left for a long drive up to Portland, when our brother said he'd take us out for lunch, I mentioned making claypot rice with spare ribs and he opted to come over instead.
