Method
Braising Method
1
Preheat the oven to 180°C.
2
Cut lamb ribs apart and trim off heavy excess fat. With meat cleaver or sharp knife, cut each rib across into thirds.
3
Place lamb ribs in a cold pan and heat gradually until they are frying and fat melts. Turn frequently so all sides brown.
4
When lamb is golden brown on all sides, place the lamb ribs in a large casserole dish with the rib bones facing up.
5
Add onion and carrot to hot lamb fat in the pan and saute over moderate heat until golden brown.
6
Stir in tomatoes and liquid, bring to boil and scrape in pan juices with a spatula.
7
Pour over ribs in casserole. Add garlic, bay leaf, thyme, salt and pepper and just enough water into the casserole dish to just cover the ribs.
8
Place in the oven and cook for 2-3 hours until the ribs are tender and cooked through.

This can be served with rice and a side of steamed vegetables. One cup of raw rice cooked in boiling salted water will be about right.
