Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound pork sparerib tips
  • 2 tablespoons black bean sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Chinese rice wine or dry sherry
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1/2 teaspoon grated fresh ginger grate on microplane grater
  • 2 cloves garlic finely minced
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper or ground white pepper
  • 1 tablespoon cooking oil
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon sugar

Instructions
 

  • Cut between each sparerib to separate each rib tip. In a large bowl, combine the rest of the ingredients. Add in the ribs and toss well to coat the spareribs evenly.
  • Transfer spareribs and sauce into a shallow, heatproof pan that will fit inside your wok (a pie plate or 9” cake pan works great.)
  • Set steaming rack inside of wok and fill with water almost up to height of rack. Turn heat to high and when water is boiling, turn heat to medium-high. Set pan with spareribs on top of a steaming rack in wok. Steam on med-high heat for 18-20 minutes until ribs are no longer pink. Make sure that when you are steaming that you don't run out of water in the wok. Replenish with additional water, if needed.
