My Chinese sparerib “riblets” recipe is a quick appetizer or side dish that is cooked in a wok or braising pan.  This recipe is great on a KETO diet and easy to prepare.  I have created this recipe by adding additional ingredients to the traditional marinade (sliced ginger, star anise pods, dry sherry, beef stock and (optional) crushed red pepper flakes (to taste) for a “kick”). 

You may have ordered these similar Cantonese style ribs in a dim sum restaurant (full of MSG, salt, sugar, and oyster sauce).

Fermented black bean is known as black Dou-chi and is a famous seasoning in many Chinese and Szechuan stir-fry dishes.  I use the prepared black bean with garlic sauce marinade (Lee Kum Kee brand) available at most local grocery stores (Asian or BBQ sauce aisle) or at your local Asian market.
