source: The Home book of Italian Cooking Cut spareribs into serving pieces, and brown in oil on both sides over medium flame. Transfer to another saucepan. Fry garlic in same oil until golden brown, remove garlic and pour tomato puree and water into pan. Stir until well blended, and then pour over spare ribs. Cover pan and simmer 30 minutes. Add quartered potaotes and seasonings. Cover pan and cook until meat and potaotes are tender. Add more water if necesssary. Serve Hot Note: I use a ½ cup of red wine in place of a ½ cup of the water. Some times I will use grape juice. works well. Posted to Recipe Archive - 06 Apr 97 by ted by: LeiG@... on Apr 6, 9
