2 lb. lard or canola oil, for frying
2 lb. pork spareribs, sliced into individual ribs
1⁄2 tbsp. Hungarian sweet paprika
1⁄2 tbsp. Hungarian hot paprika
1⁄2 tsp. granulated garlic
1⁄4 tsp. freshly grated nutmeg

Instructions

Melt lard or heat enough oil in a 6-qt. saucepan until a depth of 2" is reached. Heat until a deep-fry thermometer reads 200°. Add ribs all at once; cook, stirring occasionally, until ribs are tender, about 1 hour. Using tongs, transfer ribs to a plate. Increase lard temperature to 325°. Working in batches, fry ribs until browned and crisp, 5–7 minutes. Transfer ribs to paper towels to drain. Stir paprikas, granulated garlic, nutmeg, salt, and pepper together in a bowl; sprinkle over ribs. Serve ribs with pepper and tomato.
