Method

  1. 1 Cut the ribs into 3 cm pieces and soak them in cold water for 20 minutes to remove all the blood and whiten the meat.
  2. 2 Marinate the ribs with crushed black beans, garlic, ginger, oyster sauce, and cornstarch for 30 minutes.
  3. 3 Arrange slices of pumpkin 1 cm thick to cover the bottom of the plate as a base — the pumpkin will absorb the juices from the ribs, so no additional sauce is needed.
  4. 4 Spread the ribs on top of the pumpkin in a thin layer so that the steam can pass through.
  5. 5 Steam over high heat for 30 minutes, then drizzle with sesame oil and sprinkle with chopped scallions and chili peppers.

With an appliance

  • Oven 40 min

    Replace step 5: Cover the ribs with the pumpkin and bake at 180°C on the middle rack for 25 minutes, rotating the tray at the 13th minute; the pumpkin remains under the ribs as in step 3.
