- We clean and rinse the root vegetables. Chop the potatoes into medium cubes. Do not chop the potatoes too much, as they may become mashed during the stewing process. Lightly salt the potatoes.
- Place the ribs and root vegetables in a baking bag and add mayonnaise. If you wish, you can add carrots, after chopping them into circles.
- Close the bag and shake it well so that the mayonnaise is distributed evenly. Attention! Lightly pierce the top of the bag in several places with a knife so that it does not burst during the heat treatment.

How to stew pork ribs in a cauldron. Recipe:
You could stew it in a saucepan at home, or cook it in the oven. But when you cook in a cauldron, you get a unique taste that is difficult to achieve at home. Be sure to try it! The recipe is especially popular during the young potato season. When the potatoes are still young, and it is enough to wash them and not peel them (I remember country-style potatoes). And then, stewing it with ribs will be incredibly tasty. What can I say... stewed potatoes with ribs is always a hearty dish that is prepared periodically in many families.
Step 1.
Fry the ribs in a hot cauldron. Literally 5-7 minutes until blush...
To make the ribs more expressive in taste in the finished dish, salt them immediately. Don’t be afraid to over-salt, as there will be more ingredients later, the main one being potatoes. The taste will be smooth! And at the end, when we add water, you can taste the salt again and add salt if necessary.
Step 2.
After frying the pork ribs, add the onion, cut into half rings. How you cut the onion won’t make much difference. I only recommend not to cut it finely, since during the stewing process, it will dissolve due to the temperature of the cauldron. Half rings - 0.3-0.5 cm in size, or 1 by 1 cm cubes will be optimal. How do you like.
Step by step photo...
Fry the onion until golden brown. Literally, so that it becomes transparent... 5 minutes, and we move on to the next stage, sending the carrots.
Step 3.
Carrots always add color to dishes in a cauldron. I also like the bright colors from peppers - red, yellow, green (traffic light). But in this recipe we do without pepper.
Step 4.
I recommend adding seasonings before water. Fry the carrots for 3-5 minutes, and you can add pepper, coriander, suneli hops. Literally a pinch of each, and you can mix:
Here they are fried ribs with onions and carrots. They look delicious, and at this stage you could already serve them as a side dish. They literally need 20-30 minutes to be ready. It cooks faster in a cauldron than in a saucepan.
Step 5.
We continue the recipe and send the potatoes...
With potatoes, everything is also simple - don’t cut them finely. In this case, the cubes are around 2 by 2 cm. By eye, of course... Use the photo as a guide and do the same. It’s just that if you chop it finely, it turns out that it still needs to be stewed for some time... The point is that it doesn’t boil over, but holds its shape. Potato varieties are also very important here. But when it is large, it will be easier to control readiness.
Don’t dare pour water over it, let the potatoes fry for literally 5-7 minutes.
There is a point here that carrots were previously added in strips, and it is important that the carrots also do not turn into mush. It is advisable to add water at the stage when the carrots are almost cooked. You can check its readiness simply by breaking it in half with a ladle. If it breaks easily, it means it’s ready. Later, during the stewing process, the potatoes can be checked in the same way for readiness.
Step 6.
Fill with water until the potatoes are almost covered. In my case, it took 2 liters of water. If you add a little more, it's okay. You will get more broth.
Potatoes will be stewed in zirvak. Look at the photo, this is not just clear water. There is already a combination of ribs, onions, carrots, and seasonings... All this imparts a unique taste to the potatoes during the stewing process.
Spicy dish with tender pork
This dish is especially popular with men. If you want less spicy stewed pork ribs with potatoes, the amount of pepper and garlic in the recipe is halved. In order to prepare the dish, you need to take:
- 1 kg each of ribs and potatoes;
- a couple of onions;
- one large carrot;
- hot peppers;
- a head of garlic;
- salt and ground black pepper;
- a couple of allspice peas;
- a little smoked paprika.
You can also use bay leaves to add flavor.
Note to the hostess
If you decide to add other vegetables to the potatoes, calculate their quantity in such a way that the main place is given to the potatoes, and they only serve as a vegetable additive.
You can diversify the taste of stewed potatoes with pork ribs by first marinating the meat in soy sauce or a mixture of herbs.
Do not marinate ribs in vinegar or any acid. Marinated meat, of course, tastes better, but potatoes in an acidic environment will stew longer and will turn out less crumbly, but more dense.
