Asian Style Country Ribs
Savory but slightly sweet Asian style country ribs are so good. You can be a novice to make this satisfying dish. This can be your go to on a busy day when you don't have time or don't want to stay in the kitchen. Make it a complete meal by adding rice and broiled snap peas. These ingredients should be in your pantry, if not once you make this you'll have them and can use them for future meals. If you don't make a lot of Asian meals invest in small bottles. This goes perfectly with the rice and snap peas. The meat, sauce and peas flavor the rice. So place the rice on the bottom, top with the ribs, and the peas when dishing it up. You can use a plate or bowl. Then drizzle with boiled sauce and, to garnish, sprinkle with sesame seeds. I could curl up on the couch and eat this anytime. Yum!
