Name: Crispy Filipino Fried Spareribs With Vinegar Dipping Sauce Recipe
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 1/2 cup cane or rice vinegar, plus more for serving; 2 tablespoons soy sauce; 2 tablespoons freshly minced garlic (about 6 medium cloves); 1 1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper; 1 teaspoon oyster sauce; 1 teaspoon yellow mustard; 1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for seasoning; 1 rack St. Louis-cut pork spareribs, cut into 1-inch strips across the bone, then cut between each bone into individual portions (see note); 6 tablespoons cornstarch; Canola or peanut oil, for deep frying

Servings: persons

1
In a small bowl, whisk together vinegar, soy sauce, garlic, pepper, oyster sauce, mustard, and 1 teaspoon salt.
2
Place rib pieces in a large zipper-lock bag. Pour in marinade, seal tightly, and toss to distribute marinade evenly. Place in refrigerator and marinate for at least 4 hour or up to overnight, turning bag at least once during that time.
3
Fill a wok or Dutch oven at least 4 inches deep with oil and heat to 375u00b0F over high heat. Working in batches, transfer 1/3 of ribs to a medium bowl (they should be wet and dripping with marinade), add 2 tablespoons cornstarch, and toss until ribs are evenly coated in a sticky, paste-like batter.
4
Carefully lower ribs, one at a time, into hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 7 minutes, stirring occasionally for even cooking. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and season lightly with salt. Repeat with remaining ribs. Serve immediately with vinegar for dipping.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.
