Just like it says “Honey Lemon Soy Beef Ribs”. This recipe can be quite a hit with children who craves meat. You can purchase beef ribs at any length required, in this recipe I opted for short beef ribs. Easier for children to eat and requires less time to braise, thus a little more time for mommy to do other things. At the moment this mommy is scrabbling for more time in any possible areas just to find time to plan and organized the new kitchen. Equipment size? How tall? How wide? Does it meet my cooking requirements? Is this item just going to be a ‘White Elephant” just because it looks good. Practicality, eco friendly, sleek looking and cost efficient ! that should be my KEY words. Stay focus!
