Spicy Pork Spare Ribs with Mashed Potato

The very first time I cooked with pork ribs, I absolutely fell in love with them. So when one of my friends introduced me to this recipe, I really wanted to try it out. And I finally made it a couple of days ago.

I want to call this an Indo-Western fusion – barbecue sauce, chilly powder and lemon are the stars of this recipe.

To make these pork ribs extra delicious, I marinated them overnight. Trust me on this- it’s worth the wait! The best thing about this recipe is that you can add more or less chilly powder depending on your taste.

Serve these ribs with mashed potato (You can find the recipe here). I can honestly say that it’s a magical combo and you are going to love it!
