"This is a recipe from a local Chinese restaurant where I live. Truly delish!!"

ingredients

• 2 teaspoons oil
• 1 lb pork spareribs, cut into 1 1/4 inch pieces
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 garlic cloves
• 1 teaspoon soy sauce
• 1⁄4 cup vinegar

• Sauce

• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon vinegar
• 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar or 2 tablespoons karo brown sugar syrup

directions

1. In a skillet, brown the spare ribs and garlic in oil, mashing the garlic in with a fork as it takes on color (remove garlic before it browns). Add salt, soy sauce, vinegar and water.
2. Bring to a boil for 1 minute, reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes or until tender. (If it's barbecue weather, simmer 15 minutes, then finish slowly on grill - basting frequently with liquid from pan).

This was really good. I had a rack of spareribs that needed cooking that day but I didn't have 2 1/2 hours to do them in the oven. This was fast and as good as a low, slow roast. I also didn't make the sauce as recommended and used my favorite BBQ sauce (Carolina Honey Barbecue Sauce) instead. Next time (and there will be a next time!)I'll try the sauce as given in this recipe. Thanks for this time-saving way to do spareribs!

These were fantastic!! The sauce had somewhat of a different seasoning than most of the Chinese barbeque around. These were liked by ALL. Thanks for sharing! Made for Unrated Asian tag, 2009.
