Ready in just over two hours, this recipe is ideal for family dinners or cozy nights in, offering a delicious blend of protein, veggies, and bold flavors in every spoonful.
Rinse the pork ribs under cold water to remove any bone fragments or impurities.
In a large pot, add the pork ribs and cover them with 8 cups of water. Bring to a boil over high heat.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and skim off any foam or impurities that rise to the top.
Add the chopped onion, sliced carrots, cubed potatoes, and sliced celery to the pot.
Stir in the minced garlic, bay leaves, salt, black pepper, and soy sauce.
Lower the heat to a simmer and cover the pot with a lid. Let the soup cook gently for about 1.5 to 2 hours, allowing the flavors to meld and the pork to become tender.
After cooking, taste the soup and adjust the seasoning with more salt or pepper if needed.
Remove the bay leaves and discard them.
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with sliced green onions and chopped fresh parsley for added color and flavor.
Serve hot and enjoy the comforting taste of this pork rib soup.
