Instructions

Heat 1-inch of oil to 350°F in a wok or frying pan.
Blend garlic, cilantro, fish sauce, and sherry into a thick paste.
Toss pork ribs with the marinade, then refrigerate for at least 20 minutes or overnight.
Combine flour with salt and pepper, then coat the marinated ribs thoroughly.
Fry ribs in batches, reducing heat to medium after the first minute to maintain a consistent sizzle.
Continue to fry ribs for 5 to 6 minutes per side, flipping as needed, until deep golden brown and cooked through.
Drain fried ribs on paper towels, keep warm, and serve immediately with Thai chili sauce for dipping.
