Ingredients :

300 gr spareribs, cut into 1 and half inches lengths marinates in 2-3 hours
(Marinate Ingredients : 1 tablespoon light soy, 1 teaspoon ground pepper, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 tablespoon cornflour, and 1 tablespoon Chinese Wine)
three-quarters cups of cooking oil
quarter cup of chili, sliced diagonally
half cup of pineapple, sliced into cubes
half cup of tomato, cut into quarters
half cup of fresh onion rings
quarter cup shredded pickled ginger
2 tablespoons corn flour
3 tablespoons water

Sweet and Sour Sauce
half cup tomato ketchup
quarter cup shredded fresh young ginger
1 tablespoon vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar
half tablespoon salt
half tablespoon pepper
3 cups chicken stock

How To Make :

1. Fry marinated spareribs until golden brown in half cup cooking oil, then remove and drain. If you want, you also can add and roll the spareribs to tapioca flour before frying. It makes the beef crispier.

2. Mix the ingredients for the sweet and sour sauce in a pot, bring to a boil, then simmer about 15 minutes. Strain the sauce to remove any lumps.

3. Place the fried spareribs on a platter.

4. Heat the remaining oil in a frying pan until very hot. Put chili, pineapple, tomato, onion, and ginger into the pan and stir-fry until done. Add 1 cup of the sweet and sour sauce. In a bowl, mix corn flour with water, and add this to the mixture in the pan to thicken it, then spoon over the spareribs. Serve warm.
