Marmite Pork Ribs
Marmite is actually made from yeast extract, a by-product of beer brewing and is suitable for vegetarian. Marmite is traditionally eaten as a spread on bread or toast for breakfast. But today, it is used a lot on cooking dishes. The natural savoury flavour of Marmite in Marmite pork ribs is further enhanced by mixing with honey to create a sticky, finger-licking and caramelised juicy pork ribs. This dark glossy sauce once reduced can be the perfect glaze for any fried pork or chicken pieces too.
