FRIED BEEF RIBS



Fried Beef Ribs image

This is a great recipe from a member of our cook-off team. Beef ribs are breaded and deep-fried. This would be best in an outdoor deep-fryer. Two racks of ribs should give you about 6 pounds.

3 quarts peanut oil for frying

EASY AIR FRIED CORN RIBS



Easy Air Fried Corn Ribs image

These air fried corn ribs are reminiscent of Mexican street corn, but each ear is split into quarters and then air fried. I used frozen corn on the cob which I thawed.

Provided by thedailygourmet

Time 22m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 ears ears corn on the cob
3 tablespoons "Everything but the Elote seasoning" (Trader Joe's®), divided
nonstick cooking spray
¼ cup grated cotija cheese
2 tablespoons Mexican crema, crema fresca
1 tablespoon minced fresh cilantro, or more to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for 7 minutes.
  • Meanwhile stand corn cobs on the end, and with a sharp knife (I used a wüsthof nakiri) cut each ear down the middle. Place corn cob halves flat on a cutting board and cut in half lengthwise (you will get a total of 4 'ribs' per ear of corn).
  • Spray each corn rib with non-stick spray. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of seasoning over the 16 corn ribs.
  • Air fry corn ribs in batches for a total of 12 minutes. Remove from air fryer.
  • Drizzle crema con sal over corn 'ribs' and sprinkle with cotija cheese and remaining seasoning. Garnish with chopped cilantro.

Tabak Maaz (Kashmiri Fried Lamb Ribs) image

This recipe is from Kashmir, in India, and is a component of the formal grand feast called Wazawan. Wazawan is a 36-course rich and delicious meal, the trend of which started with the Wazas (the master chefs of Kashmir and the descendants of the cooks who migrated from Samarkand to Kashmir in the 15th century). Wazawan consists of mostly non-vegetarian dishes.

Categories     Lamb/Sheep

Time 1h50m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 lbs lamb ribs or 3 lbs shoulder lamb chops
salt, to taste
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon fennel seed, ground
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, peeled and minced
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
2 bay leaves
4 cloves
4 cardamom pods
1 (2 inch) cinnamon sticks
1/2 cup milk
2 tablespoons butter or 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
chopped fresh cilantro leaves (garnish)

Steps:

  • Combine the ribs in a large skillet with a pinch of salt and the cayenne, fennel, ginger, turmeric, bay leaves, cloves, cardamom, cinnamon, milk, and about 1/2 cup water.
  • Bring to a boil, then adjust the heat so the mixture simmers; cook, turning the meat occasionally, until tender, adding more water if the mixture dries out, 30 to 45 minutes.
  • When the ribs are tender, remove them. If any liquid remains in the pan, cook over medium-high heat, stirring with a wooden spoon to loosen any bits that have stuck to the bottom, until the mixture is just about dry.
  • Remove the cardamom pods, cloves, cinnamon stick, and bay leaves.
  • Add the butter to the pan over medium heat and when it's hot, brown the ribs. Remove the ribs to a warm platter and add about 1/2 cup water to the pan.
  • Once again, cook over medium-high heat, stirring with a wooden spoon to loosen any bits that have stuck to the bottom, until the liquid is reduced by about half. Pour over the ribs, garnish with cilantro, and serve.

Tips:

  • To ensure crispy ribs, pat them dry with paper towels before frying. This will help the coating adhere to the ribs and prevent them from becoming soggy.
  • Use a deep fryer or a large pot filled with oil for frying the ribs. This will help the ribs cook evenly and prevent them from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
  • Maintain the oil temperature between 350°F and 375°F. Using a meat thermometer to monitor the oil temperature will help ensure the ribs are cooked properly.
  • Fry the ribs in batches to prevent overcrowding and ensure even cooking. Overcrowding the pot can cause the oil temperature to drop, resulting in soggy ribs.
  • Cook the ribs until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F for medium-rare, 160°F for medium, or 170°F for well-done. Using a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature will ensure the ribs are cooked to your desired doneness.
  • Let the ribs rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the ribs, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.

Conclusion:

Fried ribs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that can be enjoyed as an appetizer or main course. By following these tips, you can create crispy, flavorful ribs that will be a hit at your next gathering. Serve them with your favorite dipping sauce, such as barbecue sauce, honey mustard, or ranch dressing, for a complete meal.
