INSTRUCTIONS
Cut ribs apart; then with a cleaver, chop each, bone and all, in 1-inch sections. Mince garlic clove and ginger root. Cut scallion tops in 1-inch lengths. Mash red bean cheese and combine with soy sauce, sugar and salt. Heat oil in a heavy pan. Add minced garlic and ginger and stir-fry a few times. Add spareribs and stir-fry to coat with oil. Add red bean cheese mixture and stir-fry until ribs begin to brown. Add water and heat quickly; then simmer, covered, until ribs are done (about 30 minutes). If liquid evaporates, add some boiling water to prevent burning. Blend cornstarch and remaining cold water to a paste; then stir in to thicken. Sprinkle with scallion tops and serve.
