  1. 1

    Warm a large skillet over medium-high heat.

  2. 2

    Put 1/2 cup flour in a resealable plastic bag or large bowl; add ribs and toss to coat completely. Pour oil into the preheated pan and heat until it shimmers. Shake off any extra flour from the ribs, then place them in the hot oil. Cook until browned on all sides, about 10 minutes.

  3. 3

    As the ribs brown, mix 1 cup hot water and bouillon cubes in a pressure cooker until dissolved. Using tongs, transfer the ribs from the skillet to the pressure cooker. Seal following the manufacturer's instructions and cook for 25 minutes.

  4. 4

    Release the pressure and open the cooker as the manufacturer directs. Add the canned tomatoes, carrots, onions, and garlic. Simmer uncovered until the vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes.

  5. 5

    At the same time, put the potatoes in a large pot and cover with water by 1 inch. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 20 minutes.

  6. 6

    Move the ribs to a serving platter. Combine 1 cup water and 3 tablespoons flour in a liquid measuring cup. Stir this into the vegetables in the pressure cooker and cook until the sauce thickens, about 5 minutes.

  7. 7

    Drain the cooked potatoes and add them to the stew along with the peas. Cook until heated through, then season with salt and pepper.

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products

easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.

The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.

Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.

For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
