Instructions

Clean the Ribs:
- Rinse the pork ribs thoroughly under cold water.
- Add 1 tablespoon of cornstarch to the ribs, mix well, and rinse again. This helps remove impurities and tenderizes the ribs.
Marinate the Ribs:
- In a large bowl, mix together black bean garlic sauce, oyster sauce, rice cooking wine, cornstarch, pepper, salt, oil, minced garlic, and minced ginger.
- Add the cleaned ribs and toss to coat evenly.
- Cover and let marinate for at least 30 minutes, or ideally overnight, to enhance the flavor.
Steam the Ribs:
- Arrange the marinated ribs in a single layer on a heatproof steaming plate.
- Place the plate in a steamer and steam over medium-high heat for 20–30 minutes, or until the ribs are tender and cooked through.
Serve:
- Garnish the steamed ribs with chopped green onions.
- Serve hot with steamed white rice for a complete and satisfying meal.
