Japanese Spicy Spare Ribs - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    salt and ground black pepper to taste
    1 pound pork spare ribs
    1 tablespoon oil
    1/4 stalk celery, grated
    1 (1/4 inch thick) slice fresh ginger, grated
    1/2 clove garlic, grated
    2 tablespoons soy sauce
    1 fresh chile pepper, finely chopped
    1 tablespoon sake
    1 tablespoon tomato puree
    1 tablespoon white sugar
    1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
    salt to taste
Preparation
    Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil; set a baking rack on top.
    Rub salt and pepper over the pork ribs; place on the prepared baking sheet.
    Cook in the preheated oven, flipping once, until meat pulls away easily from the bone, 7 to 10 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
    Heat oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Add celery, ginger, and garlic; cook and stir until fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce heat to low. Mix in soy sauce, chile pepper, sake, tomato puree, sugar, balsamic vinegar, and salt; stir until sauce is combined. Remove from heat.
    Toss pork ribs in sauce until coated.
