This Stewed Spare Ribs with Tomatoes is a comforting hearty dish simmered in tomato sauce. So perfect to go with hot rice.

Hi Ann,
Another question…if l don’t have tomato paste, what is a good substitute? Thanks.
Hi Charlotte, can use ketchup.
Hi Ann
Can l transfer contents to a slow cooker? Do l need to add a bit more water?
Hi Charlotte, Yes transfer contents to slow cooker instead of pressure cooker. No problem to add a little more water when you find the sauce is drying up.
If not using pressure cooker, still need to transfer cooked spare ribs to another cooker to simmer with 3 more tomatoes?
Hi Angeline, No need to transfer. Just cook directly from the pot to the end. Yes, add 3 or more tomatoes to your taste in the end to enhance better flavour to the dish.
