SPARERIBS WITH POTATOES (Costole di maiale con patate)

1 set spare ribs. about 2 pounds
1 tablespoon salad oil
1 clove garlic
6 oz can of tomato puree
2 cups water
3 medium sized potatoes, quartered
salt and pepper

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 1/2 cup of red wine in place of a 1/2 cup of the
water. Some times I will use grape juice. works well.
