Instructions:

1. Prepare the Beef Ribs:

   • In a large pot, bring water to a boil and add the beef ribs. Cook for approximately 40 minutes until the meat is tender.

2. Prepare the Spice Mix:

   • While the beef ribs are cooking, prepare the spice mix. Grind the kluwek, shallots, garlic cloves, black pepper, coriander seeds, turmeric, and ginger into a fine paste using a mortar and pestle or a food processor.

3. Cook the Spice Mix:

   • Heat a little oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the ground spice mix and sauté until fragrant, taking care not to burn it. Add the lemongrass, kaffir lime leaves, and galangal to the pan, stirring to combine.

4. Combine Ingredients:

   • Once the spices are fragrant, pour the mixture into the pot with the beef ribs. Allow it to simmer and meld together for about 5 minutes.

5. Season the Soup:

   • Season the soup with salt, sugar, and beef bouillon powder to taste. Adjust seasoning as needed.

6. Add Finishing Touches:

   • Stir in the sliced scallions just before serving. The heat will soften them slightly and enhance the soup’s aroma.

7. Serve with Love:

   • Serve the Rawon Iga Sapi hot, garnished with a generous portion of smiles and love. Enjoy this flavorful Indonesian beef rib soup with your favorite accompaniments!
