Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 1 1/2 lbs pork spareribs, the little ones; 2 scallions, finely sliced; 2 tablespoons sesame seeds (optional because I have been out of these and they are scrumptious without them too); 1/2 teaspoon salt; 3 tablespoons fish sauce; 2 tablespoons honey; 1 teaspoon flour; 1 teaspoon sugar; sweet and sour sauce ingredients; 2 garlic cloves, finely minced; 3 tablespoons sugar; 2 tablespoons lime juice or 2 tablespoons lemon juice; 1/2 cup warm water; 3 tablespoons fish sauce; 1/2 teaspoon ground red chili pepper

Servings: persons

1 1/2 lbs pork spareribs, the little ones
2 scallions, finely sliced
2 tablespoons sesame seeds (optional because I have been out of these and they are scrumptious without them too)
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons fish sauce
2 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon flour
1 teaspoon sugar
sweet and sour sauce ingredients
2 garlic cloves, finely minced
3 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons lime juice or 2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 cup warm water
3 tablespoons fish sauce
1/2 teaspoon ground red chili pepper

1
In large bowl, mix scallions, sesame seeds, salt, fish sauce, honey, flour and sugar. Marinate in mixture overnight -- or for 24 hours, it makes a difference! You can marinate for 15 minutes, but I noticed the flavors are amazing when marinated for longer.
2
Preheat oven at 350u00b0F
3
Bake spareribs for 20 minutes, turning occasionally. Turn oven to broil and broil ribs for 5 minutes, turning frequently. Serve with sweet and sour sauce. The fish sauce will smell kinda strong and weird while cooking -- don't worry it doesn't taste that way.

Sweet and sour sauce:
