Traditional Beijing Lamb Tripe

This succulent Braised Lamb Ribs recipe delivers fall-off-the-bone tenderness with rich, aromatic flavors. Tender lamb ribs are first blanched with ginger, scallions, and spices to remove impurities, then slow-braised to perfection. The magic begins with a fragrant stir-fry of golden onions and fresh cilantro, infusing the dish with depth. A homemade spice blend—featuring peppercorns, fennel, nutmeg, bay leaves, and cloves—lends warmth, while brown sugar balances the savory notes with a hint of sweetness. Chili peppers add a subtle kick, and a mix of soy sauces creates a glossy, caramelized glaze. Simmered low and slow for over an hour, the ribs absorb every layer of flavor, resulting in melt-in-your-mouth meat with a rich, spiced broth. Perfect for cozy dinners, this dish is a celebration of bold, comforting tastes.
