Sweet And Sour Sparerib Bites Recipe

Appetizing sweet and sour sauce ribs go well with rice.

Ingredients

300g pork spare ribs

oil for deep frying

Marinade:
1 Tablespoon soy sauce
1 Tablespoon Shaoxing wine
1 Tablespoon corn starch

Rib Coating Mixture:
1/4 cup corn starch + 1/4 cup all purpose flour
1 Tablespoon oil

Sauce:
3 Tablespoons ketchup
2 Tablespoons bottled chili sauce
1/2 Tablespoon oyster sauce
1/2 Tablespoon granulated sugar
1/4 Tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
3 Tablespoons water

Garnish:
2 chopped green onions

Directions

Prepare the ribs by cutting them into bite sized pieces.

Mix the soy sauce, Shaoxing wine and cornstarch together in a bowl and place the bite size pieces of ribs into the marinade to soak for 30 minutes.

While the meat soaks prepare the sauce.

In a bowl stir together the ketchup, chili sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, Worchestershire sauce and water. Set aside.

Coat the marinated spare ribs with the corn starch and flour mixture.

Heat about 2 inches of oil in a large pot to 375F.

Add the dredged spare ribs to the heated oil, working in batches.

Only cook a few at a time as you want them to deep fry crispy.

If you overcrowd, it will cause them to steam.

Cook for 2-3 minutes then remove to a wire rack. Set aside.

Add the sauce into a large skillet or wok and bring it to a quick boil.

Transfer the fried spare ribs into the wok, stir to coat well with the sweet and sour sauce.

Dish out and serve with rice.

Garnish with chopped green onions.
