Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Pork ribs, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 2 tablespoons Fermented black beans (low-carb, unsweetened)
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Ginger, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon Low-sodium soy sauce or tamari
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon Erythritol or other keto-friendly sweetener
- 1 teaspoon Avocado or olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground white pepper
- 1 piece Red chili, sliced (optional)
- 2 pieces Green onions, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
Rinse the fermented black beans under cold water to remove excess salt and chop them coarsely.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the pork ribs, chopped fermented black beans, minced garlic, chopped ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, erythritol, avocado oil, salt, and white pepper. Mix well to coat the ribs evenly with the marinade.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and allow the ribs to marinate for 20-30 minutes at room temperature. For deeper flavor, you can marinate in the fridge for up to 2 hours.
Prepare a steamer by bringing a pot of water to boil and setting a steamer rack or basket over the pot.
Arrange the marinated pork ribs in a single layer on a heatproof plate or shallow bowl, ensuring they are not overcrowded. Sprinkle the sliced red chili on top if using.
Place the plate or bowl with the ribs into the steamer, cover with a lid, and steam on medium-high heat for 25-30 minutes, until the ribs are cooked through and tender.
Carefully remove the plate from the steamer and garnish the ribs with chopped green onions.
Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful Keto Steamed Pork Ribs with Black Bean Sauce!
