This recipe serves 2. Adjust portions if serving more or less.
**1. Prepare the Ribs:**
- Preheat your oven to 160°C (325°F).
- Pat the pork ribs dry with paper towels. Season generously with 1 tsp of salt on all sides.
- Place the ribs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or foil. Roast in the preheated oven for 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the meat is very tender and easily pulls away from the bone.
- Once cooked, remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Shred the meat from the bones using two forks. Discard bones and any excess large pieces of fat.
- For extra crispiness, heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shredded rib meat and sear for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly browned and crispy. Set aside.
**2. Make Sweet Potato Crisps:**
- Wash the sweet potato thoroughly. Using a mandoline or a very sharp knife, slice the sweet potato into paper-thin rounds or matchsticks. The thinner, the crispier.
- Heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in a small non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the sweet potato slices in a single layer (you may need to do this in batches).
- Cook for 2-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy. Season lightly with a pinch of salt. Remove from heat and drain on paper towels. Set aside.
**3. Prepare the Feta-Yogurt Dressing:**
- Finely mince the 20g of onion.
- In a small bowl, combine the 100g full-fat plain Greek yoghurt, 30g of crumbled feta cheese, 1 tbsp of olive oil, the minced onion, and 1/4 tsp of salt. Mix well until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust salt if needed.
**4. Prepare the Salad Components:**
- Wash and chop the lettuce into bite-sized pieces.
- Dice the tomato and baby peppers.
- Toast the 20g mixed seeds lightly in a dry pan over medium heat for 2-3 minutes until fragrant. Be careful not to burn them.
**5. Assemble the Salad:**
- Divide the chopped lettuce, tomato, and baby peppers evenly between two large plates or bowls.
- Top each salad with half of the shredded rib meat.
- Drizzle generously with the Feta-Yogurt dressing.
- Garnish each serving with the remaining 30g crumbled feta cheese, the 40g grated hard cheese, the toasted seeds, and a scattering of the crispy sweet potato slices.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
