Crispy Tadyang ng Baka Beef ribs Recipe
When it comes to beer parties, Filipinos like the Pulutan either grilled or fried such as Nilasing na Hipon.
However, if it could be helped, the Filipinos very much wanted to cook their own pulutan. One such pulutan is the Crispy Tadyang ng Baka (Crispy Beef Ribs) Recipe.
A straightforward recipe, the ingredients in this Crispy Tadyang ng Baka recipe include the beef spare ribs which you can get from the butcher’s at the wet market or from the supermarket.
It is recommended though that you get it from the butcher’s so that, if you prefer, you can tell the butcher to include more meat into the spareribs.
Other ingredients just include the seasonings that you would use for the marinade such as the soy sauce, peppercorns, anise, onions, garlic, and bay leaf.
As you may have noticed, it looks very much like the ingredients for the marinade for Adobo, so if you are feeling adventurous, you can also add vinegar for the spareribs’ marinade.
As for the frying, you can use either cooking oil, butter or vegetable broth.
