福州炒排骨
Foochow people love sweet and sour dishes.
This is the reason
why so many of their favourite dishes
are sweet and sour.
Fried pork ribs in sweet and sour sauce
is a popular dish served in Sitiawan Restaurants.
It is served with some pickled cucumber by the side of the dish.
Sometimes,
they just put some sliced cucumber at the bottom of the plate
before placing the fried pork ribs on top.
Unfortunately,
these days you hardly can find the original fried pork ribs served this way!
Today,
many new restaurants there serve fried pork ribs with French Fries!
