Spicy Ribs
Ingredients:
- 2 1/2 pounds boneless meaty spareribs or pork shoulder
- 2 tablespoons sea salt
- 2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon five-spice powder
- 1 tablespoon garlic, chopped
- 1 small white onion or 2 to 3 scallions, sliced
- 2 to 3 pieces finger chile, sliced diagonally
- 3 to 4 cups oil for deep-frying, or as needed
- 3 tablespoons cornstarch, or as needed
Procedure:
1) Stir-fry the salt and black pepper in a heavy frying pan over medium-low heat, shaking the pan, until the salt darkens. Remove from the heat and stir-in the five-spice powder. Cool.
2) Cut the spareribs along the individual bones. Rub lightly with salt and pepper mixture. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 2 hours.
3) Preheat the oil for deep-frying to between 360 and 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Dust the spareribs with the cornstarch. Use a deep-fryer basket to carefully add the ribs into the oil. Deep-fry the submerged spareribs for 3 to 4 minutes. Remove and drain.
4) Sautè garlic until golden brown then set aside. Quickly sautè scallion and chile then set aside.
5) Deep-fry the spareribs a second time, until they are crispy and cooked (about 1 minute). Drain. Top with garlic, scallion and chile.
6) Serve with any remaining salt and pepper mix for dipping.
