Chef Morimoto’s Sticky Ribs
Chef Morimoto’s sticky ribs are crispy, tender, salty, and sweet, making them perfect for impressing guests at any get-together. We serve them at many of my restaurants, and I’m excited to share the recipe with you. The ribs are braised first, then dunked in cornstarch and flash-fried to make them crispy. I then douse the ribs in my tasty hoisin sweet-and-sour sauce, giving them a unique Pan-Asian twist. Whether you’re an experienced chef or a new cook, this recipe is easy to follow at home with just a few simple steps and cooking instructions. I hope you enjoy making them as much as you’ll love eating them.
