Description
This came together because I didn’t want anything going to waste, and honestly, it surprised me. It’s rich, a little rustic, and just works.
Ingredients

Scale
- 150 g pork ribs, bone-in
- 3 medium bok choy
- 2 spring onions
- 100 g sliced purple cabbage
- 4 large eggs
- 125 ml - 1/2 cup Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, grated
- 1 Tbsp minced garlic
- 237 ml whipping cream
- Bacon bits, optional
- Dried parsley, optional
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Olive oil spray (VOO)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 380⁰F (195⁰C).
- Lightly spray a medium oven-safe dish with olive oil spray and set aside.
- Season 150 g pork ribs with salt and pepper (or your favourite spice mix) and cook until fully done and tender (or use leftover meat).
- Let the pork ribs cool slightly, then remove the bones and chop the meat into small bite-sized pieces. Set aside.
- Wash and roughly chop the 3 medium bok choy, 2 spring onions, and a small slice of purple cabbage.
- If the bok choy stems feel thick, slice them a bit thinner so they cook evenly.
- Add everything to a large bowl.
- In a separate bowl, beat together the 4 large eggs, ± ½ cup Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, 1 Tbsp minced garlic, and 237 ml whipping cream. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
- Pour the egg mixture over the chopped vegetables and add the chopped pork ribs.
- Mix everything well so the veggies and meat are nicely coated.
- Tip the mixture into your prepared dish and spread it out evenly.
- If using bacon bits, sprinkle them over the top (optional, but I did).
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 40 to 45 minutes, or until the centre is set and the top is lightly golden.
- Let it rest for about 5 to 10 minutes before slicing.
- Sprinkle with dried parsley if you like, then serve warm.
