Deep-Fried Spare Ribs with coffee Flavor
Friday, July 23rd, 2010
You may be surprised by this combination of ingredients, but actually there is nothing new with meat or poultry being marinated or seasoned with unusual flavor. Have tried chicken marinated with stout, beer, coca-cola, fermented bean curd, prawn paste and etc, just do it as long as you like it.
Ingredients
600g spare ribs, 1 stalk lettuce
Marinade
1 tbsp Chinese cooking wine tbsp corn starch, little bit of sesame oil and bicarbonate of soda, pinch of salt
Seasoning
1 tbsp instant coffee, 1 tbsp sugar, 3 tbsp water
Method
- Chopped spare ribs into serving size and marinate for 2 hours.
- Heat oil in a wok and deep-fried spare ribs until golden in color, drain oil and set aside.
- Keep about 1 tbsp of oil in the wok and add seasoning, simmer with low heat to a light boil.
- Add chicken in and toss to mix well with gravy.
- Dish up when gravy started to thicken and chicken is well covered with the sauce.
