Dry Garlic Spare Ribs – Sybaritica

Dry Garlic Spare Ribs are similar to the classic ‘Honey Garlic Spare Ribs’, except are lightly glazed rather braised in sauce and make a better appetizer.

  • 3/4 lb Pork Spareribs in 1” lengths (about 24, in all)
  • 2 tbsp. Vegetable oil
  • 3 1/2 tbsp. Sugar
  • 3 1/2 tbsp. Soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp. Vinegar
  • 1 tbsp. minced Garlic
  • Lightly brown the ribs in a little oil until just cooked through and then remove to a bowl.
  • When the ribs have cooled, stir in the minced garlic and let sit for at least an hour
  • When ready to cook, heat the vegetable oil in a pan over moderately high heat and stir in the sugar and the soy sauce.
  • When the sauce is bubbling and begins to thicken, add in the ribs and the vinegar and continue stirring until the sauce has reduced to a glaze.
  • Plate and serve while hot.
