Method
Wash the pork ribs. Combine all of the marinade ingredients and add the ribs. Marinate the ribs for 30 minutes. For best results, deep fry the ribs for 3-5 minutes, at a medium level until cooked and browned. Alternatively, bake the ribs in the oven at 200°C/400°F/Gas 6 for 30-40 minutes until cooked and browned. Prepare the sauce by combining all the ingredients and simmer in a pan on a medium heat until the mixture bubbles and becomes thick and sticky. Toss the cooked ribs into the sauce and serve immediately.
