This is for Cindi in Nebraska, who wanted a Sweet & Sour Sauce recipe. This is the one my family likes best. I use it for Sweet & Sour Pork, Sweet & Sour Ribs, Sweet & Sour Chicken.

I am sending the whole original recipe, but the sauce can be made and used without doing the meat this way. It is red and sweet with a slight tang.

Sweet and Sour Spare Ribs

1-1/2 to 2 lbs spare ribs
2 eggs, beaten
salt and pepper, to taste
garlic powder
flour

Sauce
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup ketchup
1-1/2 cups cold water
1/4 cup white vinegar
1-1/2 tbsp. corn starch, mixed in a little water.

Cut spareribs in pieces.
Beat eggs to which you add the salt, pepper, and pinch of garlic powder. Dip spareribs in egg mixture, then roll in flour.
Fry until slightly brown, remove and place in a casserole.

Sauce:-Put all ingredients in a saucepan and simmer until it thickens, then pour over ribs in casserole. Bake in a preheated 350F for 1-1/2 hours.

Note:-I often make this recipe with pieces of pork or chicken. If using pork I cut it about the size of a rib. For chicken I use wings or drumsticks.
