Full Recipe:
Ingredients
For the Honey-Glazed Pork Ribs:
4 pounds (about 2 kg) pork ribs
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon sweet chili sauce
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon wine vinegar (or apple cider vinegar)
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
For the Roasted Vegetables:
5-6 potatoes (cut into chunks)
1 large carrot (sliced)
1 large onion (quartered)
2-3 cloves garlic (peeled and smashed)
Salt and black pepper to taste
Extra vegetable oil for drizzling
Steps to Make Honey-Glazed Pork Ribs with Roasted Vegetables

Prepare the Pork Ribs:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).
Rinse the pork ribs under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
Season the ribs with 1/2 teaspoon salt, ensuring an even layer over the meat.
Prepare the Honey Glaze:
In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, sweet chili sauce, Dijon mustard, soy sauce, vinegar, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Mix until well combined.
Drizzle the ribs with 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil and rub it over the ribs to coat evenly.

 

 

Brush the honey glaze over both sides of the ribs, reserving some of the glaze for basting later.
Roast the Pork Ribs:
Place the ribs on a baking sheet lined with foil or in a roasting pan.
Cover the ribs with another piece of foil to retain moisture and prevent the glaze from burning.
Roast the ribs in the preheated oven for 1 ½ to 2 hours, or until they are tender. Every 30 minutes, brush the ribs with the reserved glaze for extra flavor.
Prepare the Vegetables:
While the ribs are roasting, prepare the vegetables. Cut the potatoes into chunks, slice the carrot, quarter the onion, and smash the garlic cloves.
Place the vegetables on a separate baking sheet and drizzle them with a bit of vegetable oil. Season with salt and black pepper, then toss everything to coat evenly.
Roast the Vegetables:
After the ribs have been in the oven for 1 hour, place the vegetable tray in the oven alongside the ribs.
Roast the vegetables for 40-45 minutes, or until they are tender and golden, stirring halfway through to ensure even cooking.
Finish the Pork Ribs:
Once the ribs are tender, remove the foil covering and increase the oven temperature to 400°F (200°C).
Continue roasting for an additional 10-15 minutes to caramelize the glaze and create a sticky, golden crust. Be careful not to let the glaze burn.
Serve and Enjoy:
Once the ribs are caramelized, remove them from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Serve the ribs alongside the roasted vegetables, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Can I grill the ribs instead of baking them? Yes, you can grill the ribs. Start by slow-cooking them on indirect heat to allow them to become tender, then brush with glaze and cook over direct heat to caramelize the glaze.
What if I don’t have smoked paprika? You can substitute regular paprika if smoked paprika is unavailable, but adding a dash of liquid smoke or smoked salt can help recreate the smoky flavor.

Spaghetti with Lupins and Prawns: A Delicate Hug of the Sea with Fresh Cherry Tomatoes

Introduction:
When it comes to surprising a special person with a seafood dish full of flavor and refinement, spaghetti with lupini beans and fresh prawns is the perfect choice. This recipe combines the sweetness of the prawns, the intense flavor of the lupini beans and the freshness of the cherry tomatoes, creating an unforgettable culinary experience. The touch of love? Shelling the crustaceans after cooking to make every bite a real luxury.

Ingredients:
For 2 people:

200 g of spaghetti
300 g of fresh lupini beans
250 g of fresh prawns
200 g of cherry tomatoes
2 cloves of garlic
4 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
1/2 glass of dry white wine
Chopped fresh parsley
Salt and pepper to taste
Chilli pepper (optional)
Instructions:
Preparation of the ingredients: Rinse the lupini beans thoroughly under running water to remove any impurities. Shell the prawns, leaving a few whole for decoration, and save the heads for an optional broth. Cut the cherry tomatoes in half.

Cooking the lupins: In a large pan, heat 2 tablespoons of oil with a crushed garlic clove. Add the lupins, deglaze with the white wine and cover with a lid. Cook over medium heat until the lupins open (about 5-7 minutes). Discard any that are closed and set aside.

Preparing the prawns: In the same pan, add another 2 tablespoons of oil and a clove of garlic. When the garlic is golden, add the prawns and cook for 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and keep warm.

Preparing the sauce: In the pan used for the shellfish, add the cherry tomatoes and a pinch of salt. Let cook for 5-6 minutes, until the sauce is light and fragrant.

Cooking the pasta: Cook the spaghetti in plenty of salted water and drain al dente. Transfer to the pan with the sauce, adding a ladle of cooking water if necessary.

Assembling the dish: Add the lupini beans and prawns to the sauce, stirring gently to blend the flavors. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and, if desired, a pinch of chili pepper.

Serving and storage suggestions:
Serve the dish piping hot, garnishing with a few whole prawns for an aesthetic touch.
If you have any leftovers, store the spaghetti in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 1 day. Gently heat in a pan with a drizzle of oil before serving.
