Ingredients:

  • 6 pork belly spare ribs (about 2 kg)

Marinade

  • honey
  • plum sauce
  • maltose
  • red food colouring
  • ¼ cup sherry vinegar
  • 2 tablespoon ground ginger
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • cinnamon
  • szechuan pepper
  • star anise
  • dark soy
  • maltose
  • 2 tablespoon hoisin sauce
  • ½ cup chopped coriander
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon chopped chilli

Method:

To make the marinade, combine all the ingredients in a mixing bowl to form a paste.

Arrange the pork belly spare ribs in a large shallow container. Pour on the marinade and use your hands to rub it in evenly. Cover with plastic wrap and leave to marinate in the refrigerator overnight.

Preheat the oven to 150°C. Lift the spare ribs into a large roasting tin and pour in the marinade and 2 cups of water.

Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 1½ to 2 hours, basting with the marinade every 15 minutes.

Remove from the oven and leave to cool.

Tip the liquid from the roasting tin into a small saucepan. Bring to the boil over a high heat, then lower the heat and cook until reduced to a sticky glaze. You can prepare the ribs and glaze to this stage up to 4 days in advance (or uncover & cook on high).

When ready to cook, preheat your barbecue or grill to medium. Cut the ribs apart between the bones and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, basting with the glaze from time to time.

Serve the ribs with any leftover glaze and your choice of accompaniments.
