Steamed Pork Rib and Pumpkin

written by Emma Tang

steamed-pork-rib-and-pumpkin-for-pinterestLooking for an easy and delicious pumpkin recipe for the fall? This healthy Steamed Pork Rib and Pumpkin is going to be a perfect fit. You’ll want to make it all the time like I do. I can’t wait to share with you guys how to make this dish, let’s jump right in.

To start, I used oyster sauce, soy sauce, potato starch, salt and sugar mixture to marinate the pork ribs. For this dish, the pork ribs are normally cut into small bite-size pieces. I often asked the butcher at the grocery store to cut the pork ribs for me. It’s safer to let the professional handle it and helps to save time.

For garnishing the dish, I sprinkled on top freshly chopped green onion to add color and a hint of onion spiciness to the dish.

Dear Emma
What a wonderful recipe you have created.
I have a pumpkin sitting in the corner of my kitchen and a big lump of pork belly, so I just thought I needed a recipe to do something about these two ingredients. I googled with pumpkin and pork belly typed in and found your site.
I bet instead of pork ribs, pork belly will make a good meal. Thank you very much.
