Method
To make the sauce, boil all ingredients in a small pot with 2 tbsp water until the sugar dissolves. Leave to cool.
To make the marinade, combine all ingredients.
Cut the pork ribs into two rib pieces. Pour the marinade over the pork and leave to marinate for 40 minutes.
Heat the oil in a wok until very hot. Deep-fry the ribs, turning occasionally, until they are golden brown and cooked through; about 6 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain well on kitchen paper. Strain, cool and reserve the oil for another day.
Pile the ribs onto the centre of a large plate and sprinkle with coriander. Serve with the sauce and Sichuan salt-and-pepper.
