Combine ribs, five spice powder, salt, garlic powder, sherry, ground black pepper, and cornstarch. Mix well and marinate for at least 3 hours.

Heat a deep fryer or cooking pot and pour-in cooking oil.

Divide the marinated ribs into two batches.

When the oil turns hot, deep fry the first batch of marinated ribs for about 8 to 12 minutes.

Remove the first batch of ribs from the fryer and transfer to a plate. Meanwhile, deep fry the second batch for a good 8 to 12 minutes.

Remove the second batch of ribs from the fryer and transfer to a plate. Deep fry the first batch of ribs for the second time for another 10 minutes or until the texture becomes crispy.

Remove the first batch of ribs from the fryer and transfer to a serving plate lined with paper towels (this will absorb excess oil).

Put-the second batch of ribs in the fryer and fry for 10 minutes or until crispy.

Remove the second batch from the fryer and transfer to the serving plate with the first batch of ribs.

Serve. Share and enjoy!
