Recipe source :  Adapted from ThaiTable.com

This slow-boiled tom yum pork ribs is excellent! A wonderful blend of flavours. Sour, hot and spiciness all in one bowl! And the pork ribs are so tender, they were bursting with flavours from the hot and spicy soup. 

I felt a warm glow after drinking this spicy soup. Very satisfying!

I am definitely making this again!
