Ingredients

1 x pack of our lamb short rib racks
1 tbsp grated ginger
2 tbsp Chinese rice wine
1 tsp sesame oil
3 tbsp hoisin sauce
1 tbsp honey (Tenterfield river weed honey sold on Molesworth Street)
1 tsp soy sauce
2 tsp toasted sesame seeds

Directions

Place the ribs in a large container along with ginger, rice wine, sesame oil, and 2 tablespoons of hoisin sauce. Mix thoroughly, cover, and marinate for at least 3 hours, or preferably overnight.
Preheat your oven to 170ºC (340ºF). Transfer the marinated ribs and any remaining marinade into a large baking dish. Cover the dish tightly with foil and bake for 2 ½ hours, or until the ribs are very tender. Remove the ribs from the oven and allow them to cool slightly.
Increase the oven temperature to 220ºC (430ºF). Using a large, sharp knife, slice the racks of ribs into individual pieces. Arrange the ribs in a single layer on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, combine the remaining hoisin sauce with honey and soy sauce. Brush this mixture evenly over the ribs.
Place the ribs back in the oven and bake for about 5 minutes, or until the sauce becomes dark and sticky.
Remove the ribs from the oven and sprinkle them with sesame seeds.
Serve the sticky hoisin ribs immediately and enjoy!
