Ingredients
Quantities are shown as originally provided.
- 1 lb (450 g) spare ribs, chopped into small pieces (see note)
- 2 tsp fish sauce
- 5 cloves garlic, chopped
- ½ tsp ground white or black pepper
- 2 Tbsp honey
- 2 tsp soy sauce
- 2 tsp oyster sauce
- 2 Tbsp all-purpose flour (approx.)
- 2 Tbsp cornstarch (approx.)
Instructions
- 1
Toss ribs in fish sauce in a flat dish and marinate for at least 30 mins. (Don't use a round-bottom bowl or the fish sauce will pool at the bottom).
- 2
While the ribs marinate, preheat the steamer, bringing the water to a boil.
- 3
Place ribs in a heatproof bowl and steam over boiling water until fork tender, about 40-45 minutes depending on the size.
- 4
Use tongs to remove only the ribs, leaving the pork juice behind, and place them in a mixing bowl.
- 5
Let pork juice cool until lukewarm, then put in the fridge or freezer to chill just enough so the fat solidifies a bit. (This step is optional, only to make fat skimming easier. If you don't have time you can just use a spoon to skim off as much of the fat as you can while it's still warm.)
