Ingredients

    500g pork spareribs
    2 tbsp salted blackbeans, well washed
    1 tsp salt
    1 tbsp sugar
    1 tbsp chinese rice wine or dry sherry
    1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
    2 tbsp oyster sauce
    2 tbsp soy sauce
    1 tsp sesame oil
    2 garlic cloves, crushed
    1 sm red chilli, finely chopped
    2 tsp cornflour
    2 tbsp coriander leaves

Directions

Ask your butcher to cut the pork into 5 cm strips instead of the normal 8 cm strips. Trim off any excess fat and cut between bones into 2-3 cm bite-sized pieces. Wash well and dry thoroughly.
Rinse the black beans thoroughly in a bowl of cold water and drain. Place in a big bowl and lightly mash. Add the salt, sugar, wine, ginger, oyster sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, chilli and cornflour, mixing well. Add the ribs, toss well to coat and marinate for at least 1 hour.
Arrange the ribs in 4 or 6 small heat proof shallow chinese sauce bowls and steam in a bamboo steamer over simmering water until tender ( about 45 mins )
TO SERVE
Scatter with fresh coriander leaves. Serves 4-6
