Basting Sauce
Heat the oil in a saucepan and cook the onion, garlic and ginger until tender. Add all the remaining ingredients and simmer until reduced by half, about 30-40 minutes. Cool.
Put the ribs in a large dish and pour over the sauce. Cover and regrigerate for up to 2 days.
To Cook
Allow the ribs to come back to room temperature before cooking. Take them out of the marinade and scrape off the excess. Put the marinade in a bowl. Grill the ribs on a lightly greased barbecue over a moderate heat. Turn and brush with sauce several times until they are tender and well glazed. Discard any remaining sauce.
Serve the spareribs with baked potatoes and sourcream plus a crisp green salad. Serves 6. |
