Cooking StepsHow to cook Sizzling Clay Pot Pork Ribs (Classic Cantonese) step by step
-
Step 1 DetailWash 300g pork ribs with 1 tbsp cornstarch and 1 tsp salt, rubbing well, then rinse thoroughly with water — this effectively removes blood and gamey odor. Pat dry with paper towels for better marinating. Cut half an onion into large chunks. Prepare 10g scallions, ginger, and garlic.
-
Step 2 DetailMarinate the ribs with 1 tbsp light soy sauce, 0.5 tbsp premium soy sauce, 0.5 tbsp dark soy sauce, 1 tbsp oyster sauce, 1 tbsp cooking wine, 0.5 tbsp ground fermented black bean paste (or substitute with whole fermented black beans; the ground paste is more flavorful), 0.5 tbsp cornstarch, 0.5 tsp sugar, 0.5 tsp salt, and a pinch of white pepper. Mix well, then drizzle in 1 tbsp peanut oil to seal in moisture. Marinate for 10 minutes.
-
Step 3 DetailHeat oil in a clay pot (sand pot). Add the onion, garlic cloves, and ginger pieces. Stir-fry until fragrant.

-
Step 5 DetailCover with the lid and drizzle a splash of Guangdong rice wine around the rim. Cook for 10 minutes — start on high heat; once you hear the sizzling jeh jeh sound, reduce to medium-low. Do not keep on high heat the whole time, or the onions may burn.
