Roasted Short Ribs from Kenya

puppitypup's Note:

Posted for ZWT, but I haven't made it yet. The recipe didn't specify amounts on the spices, but I would guess between 1/8 - 1/2 teaspoon of each, then more to taste later if needed. Also, I guessed on the servings and the time, and I didn't include the marinating time in the time requirements.

Weeellllllll...I used pork ribs. And they turned out FABULOUS! This is a very tasty spice mix & a breeze to whip together. I will try this on beef short ribs someday! Made for ZWT4- the African Spice it Up Challenge. I used Home Mixed Curry Powder in place of the curry powder.

A whole new way of spicing up ribs! Plenty of short ribs in the freezer - will be playing around with those seasonings as can see one lot of possible combinations to add variety to our meals. I was genereous with the curry powder and the paprika using all as per recipe - being light on the coriander - marinated for about five hours. Made for excellent ribs that were very flavorful.

Made & reviewed for ZWT - Kumquat's Kookin' Kaboodles! I used 1/2 tsp each of turmeric, coriander & hot paprika, and 1tsp of curry powder plus salt & fresh black pepper to taste for my ribs. I also added a little grated lemon zest & a tiny pinch of cloves as Zurie mentioned. I also added some finely chopped fresh coriander / cilantro. The ribs turned out beautiful - succulent, juicy & very flavourful! This will definitely be made again - Thanks Julie for another winner!
