Cover the tray tightly with foil and place in the oven for 30 minutes at 200 C / 395 F. Remove the tray and gently fold the foil to turn the ribs over. Cover back with foil and place back in the oven for another 20 minutes at 200° C.
Then reduce the oven to 170 C / 335 F and cook the ribs for 2 hours, turning over halfway.
Finally, remove the tray from the oven and uncover the foil. Cut the meat off the bone where it starts to come away (it will). Turn the heat back up to 200 C / 395 F, and cook the ribs exposed for a further 20 minutes.
Finally, steam or boil some Asian greens or broccoli and serve with the beef drizzled with extra lime juice. Sprinkle fresh coriander over the top if you like.
