Tong Cho Pork Ribs (Sugar Vinegared Pork Ribs)

I have been slacking I know.  What woke me up?  A nice lady by the name of Rosalind Choon commented on my blog.  She said that my blog has all her favourite food. You see I need you to post comments to let me know that someone is reading my blog.  So here's a simple recipe for sweet and sour pork ribs done the original traditional way.
Ingredients
1 kg premium pork ribs (I always buy indonesian pork from wet market)
Season with salt, pepper and oyster sauce for at least 3 to 4 hours
Cornflour for coating pork just before frying
For sauce - Mix in a bowl
1 teaspoon chinese wine
1 tablespoon white vinegar
1 teaspoon each of light and dark soya sauce
2 teaspoons of brown sugar or 2 small pieces of rock sugar
3 tablespoons water
Method
Heat oil in frying pan and deep fry pork till nicely brown (do not overcook or meat will be tough)
Remove from pan
Heat a little oil in pan and pour in the sauce mixture
Boil gently and keep stirring
When sauce thickens, do a taste test and adjust according to your liking
Put in the pork and stir till evenly coated with the sauce. Do not have too much gravy
