Deep southern ribs with florida slaw

Method

1. Set the oven to 150C/gas 1. Place the ribs, onion, garlic, bay leaves and cumin in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to the boil. Drain and pat dry.

2. Combine all of the ingredients for the glaze into a pan. Simmer for about four to five minutes until the sauce has thickened slightly. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper.

3. Put the onion quarters into a baking tray and place the rack of ribs on top. Brush all over with the sauce and roast for about two hours, until sticky and tender.

4. For the griddled corn, heat the butter and add the garlic, paprika and chilli. Cook over a low heat for three to four minutes.

5. Brush the corn with the infused butter, and place onto a grill or barbeque. Cook for four to five minutes, basting with the butter occasionally.

6. For the Florida slaw, whisk the mayonnaise and sour cream in a large bowl until smooth. Whisk in the orange juice, lime juice and vinegar.

7. Stir in the sesame seeds and season to taste. Stir this into the remaining salad ingredients until thoroughly combined. Transfer to a large serving bowl, garnish with star fruit slices and serve with the sticky ribs and griddled corn.
