"24 years ago when I relocated to the UK from South Africa, I hardly cooked, as eating out in South Africa was very reasonable! To enhance my cooking abilities, I went on a Thai cooking course, 1 evening for 6 weeks!"

Boil a kettle of water and keep aside. Place the wok back on med heat, now add the ribs, chillies, spring onions tips, ginger strips, sugar, Sherry and Soy sauce.

    Once the ribs have been cooking for 50 mins, add your frozen chips to your air fryer / over - cook in accordance with packaging recommendations. With 10 mins left for the chips to be cooked, please remove the wok's lid and decrease the heat, thus allowing the remaining liquid to form a rich thick sauce - please ensure that the heat is low, as the sauce cook burn. Once the sauce has thickened, please remove from all heat and cover until the chips are ready to be served.

    Ribs are best served in the wok, straight to the table with a platter for the chips. Best served with fresh orange juice as an accompanying drink!

💡 Chef's Tips
For extra spiciness, add more chillies, if diabetic, replace the Sherry with concentrated Apple juice and use a sugar alternative. A rack of short ribs also works well - reduce cooking time accordingly.
