Marinade/Char Siu Sauce:
- 1 1/2 tablespoons maltose

- 1 1/2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
- 1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce

Instructions
- Add all ingredients in the marinate/char siu sauce in a sauce pan, heat it up and stir-well until all blended. Transfer out and let cool.
- Rub the ribs on both sides with the chopped garlic. Marinate the ribs with 2/3 of the marinate sauce for 8 hours or overnight in the refrigerator.
