schedulePrepare in advance
Wash hands thoroughly after handling raw pork to prevent cross-contamination.
Rinse 1000g defrosted pork spareribs thoroughly with water and drain. Pat completely dry with kitchen towel until no moisture remains.
Watch out
Ensure spareribs are completely dried, otherwise seasonings won't stick well and crispiness will be compromised.
Peel half a bulb of garlic and finely dice into small bits.
Watch out
Dice garlic finely so the flavor marinates deeply into the meat.
Add minced garlic, 1 tbsp sugar, 0.5 tsp salt, 1 tbsp cornstarch, 2 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp oyster sauce, and 0.5 tsp white pepper to ribs. Mix thoroughly until evenly coated.
Watch out
Mix thoroughly so cornstarch and liquids combine smoothly into an even coating on the ribs.
Let the marinated spareribs rest for about 1 hour so flavors absorb deeply into the meat.
Watch out
Marinating less than an hour may leave the center bland.
Use tongs to arrange marinated spareribs into the air fryer basket in a single layer.
Watch out
Do not overlap ribs, or air won't circulate evenly, leaving parts undercooked.
Set air fryer temperature to 185°C and cook for 10 minutes until surface turns lightly golden.
