To make Ukrainian Red Borscht with Pork Ribs, you will need the following ingredients per serving:

- 1 pork rib
- 1 medium beet, peeled and grated
- 1/2 cup shredded cabbage
- 1 small potato, peeled and diced
- 1 small carrot, peeled and diced
- 1/2 small onion, chopped
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 tablespoon vinegar
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Sour cream and fresh dill for serving

To start, brown the pork rib in a large pot over medium-high heat. Remove the rib and set it aside. In the same pot, sauté the onion and garlic until fragrant. Add the grated beet, shredded cabbage, diced potato, and diced carrot. Stir to combine and cook for a few minutes until the vegetables start to soften.
Add the tomato paste, bay leaf, sugar, vinegar, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine. Add enough water to cover the vegetables and bring the soup to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 1 hour, or until the vegetables are tender and the pork rib is cooked through.
Remove the pork rib from the soup and shred the meat. Discard the bone and return the meat to the pot. Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning as needed.
To serve, ladle the Ukrainian Red Borscht with Pork Ribs into bowls and top with a dollop of sour cream and some fresh dill. The soup should be bright red in color and have a slightly sweet and sour taste. The pork rib adds a meaty flavor and makes the soup more filling.
This dish can be classified as a soup/stew and its three main ingredients are pork ribs, beets, and cabbage. Ukrainian Red Borscht with Pork Ribs is a delicious and comforting meal that is perfect for any occasion.
