Try this slow cooked ribs recipe for an easy to make, all natural and hearty meal that is sure to become a family favourite!Using The Tallow to baste the meat adds a nutritional boost of grass fed fat, high in vitamin A & K and adds the perfect crisp coating to this twist on classic ribs.
Place the racks of ribs face up on a roasting tray
Melt the tallow in a small saucepan until soft
Gently massage the softened tallow into the ribs
Sprinkle the crushed five spice, the salt and the star anise over the ribs (back and front).
(Optional) Trickle the fish sauce over the ribs for added umami flavour
Place the cut vegetables and chunks of whole garlic gloves around the ribs, adding any remaining tallow on top of the vegetables
Heat in oven for 60 – 80 minutes (ribs are much tastier when they are slow cooked, so if possible leave for two hours at 150 degrees).
Notes
Once cooked, the ribs should be very tender, easy to cut, or even tear apart no knife needed!Serve immediately while still nice and hot, season with cracked black pepper and a squeeze of lemon juice to taste.Enjoy :-)
