Indonesian Red-Spiced Beef Ribs Recipe (Iga Sapi Bumbu Merah)

Ingredients:

  • 500 grams of beef ribs (approximately 5 pieces)
  • 5 large red chilies
  • 4 shallots
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1 thumb-sized piece of ginger
  • 1 thumb-sized piece of turmeric
  • 4 candlenuts
  • 1 packet of coriander powder
  • 1 stalk of lemongrass
  • 3 bay leaves
  • 1 thumb-sized piece of galangal (crushed)
  • Sufficient water
  • A small amount of oil
  • 1 packet of coconut milk (or as desired)
  • Sugar to taste
  • Salt or seasoning to taste

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Ribs:

    • Begin by washing the beef ribs thoroughly. Place them in a pot, cover with water, and boil until tender. Once cooked, remove the ribs from the pot and drain.
  2. Prepare the Spice Paste:

    • While the ribs are boiling, prepare the spice paste. Blend the red chilies, shallots, garlic, ginger, and turmeric into a smooth paste.
  3. Cook the Spice Paste:

    • Heat a small amount of oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the blended spice paste to the pan and sauté until fragrant and the oil begins to separate from the paste.
  4. Add Aromatics:

    • Add the crushed galangal, bay leaves, and lemongrass to the pan. Stir and cook for a few more minutes to infuse the flavors.
  5. Simmer the Ribs:

    • Incorporate the boiled beef ribs into the pan, along with sufficient water to cover the meat. Allow the mixture to simmer until it starts to boil vigorously.
  6. Add Coconut Milk and Seasonings:

    • Stir in the coconut milk, and season with salt and sugar according to your taste preferences. Mix thoroughly to ensure the flavors are well combined.
  7. Final Adjustments:

    • Taste the dish and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Continue to cook until the sauce thickens and the beef ribs are well-coated with the rich, red spice mixture.
  8. Serve:

    • Remove from heat and serve hot. This dish pairs wonderfully with steamed rice and is perfect for a hearty meal.

Enjoy your flavorful Indonesian Red-Spiced Beef Ribs, a dish rich in taste and aromatic spices!
