• Ready In: 1hr 5mins
• Ingredients: 6
• Yields: 1 1/2 pound
• Serves: 2

ingredients

• 1 1⁄2 lbs meaty spareribs (ask the butcher to slice them into individual ribs and cut each rib crosswise into 3 pieces)
• 1 tablespoon dry sherry
• 2 tablespoons dark soy sauce
• 3 tablespoons cider vinegar
• 4 tablespoons sugar
• 5 tablespoons water

directions

1. Put the ribs in a skillet or saucepan and set it over high heat; add the rest of the ingredients and stir to mingle. When the liquid comes to a boil, adjust heat to maintain a very gentle simmering, and cover and simmer for 40 minutes. Stir and turn the spareribs from time to time.
2. Uncover and turn heat high to bring the sauce to a sizzling boil; stir rapidly until the sauce is all but evaporated. Serve hot.
