- 8.0 cups water (for boiling)
- 10.0 pieces dried soy cutlets
- .25 cups vegetable oil (for frying)
- 2.0 cups BBQ sauce
- 2.0 tbsp. soy sauce
- 1.0 tsp. liquid smoke (optional)
- .5 cups water (for sauce)
- 3 tbsp. sugar
- 1.0 tbsp. garlic powder
- 1.0 tbsp. onion powder
- 1.5 tsp. cornstarch
Preparation
- Cook the soy: Bring 8 cups of water to a boil. Add the soy cutlets and cook until softened, about 20 minutes. Drain, rinse, and squeeze out excess water.
- Fry the soy: Heat ¼ cup oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry the cutlets until golden brown on both sides. Remove and set aside.
- Make the sauce: In a bowl, whisk together BBQ sauce, soy sauce, liquid smoke (if using), ½ cup water, sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, and cornstarch until smooth.
- Marinate: Place the fried soy cutlets in the sauce and stir to coat. Let marinate for at least 20 minutes.
- Glaze the ribs: Return the cutlets and sauce to the skillet. Reduce heat and simmer until the sauce thickens and clings to the cutlets, about 15 minutes.
- Serve: Slice to your preferred thickness and serve hot.
