Tips:
Ribs produce some fat when you cook them and i spoon out  the fat as it cools on top of the stock. To make a really fat-free version, prepare the stock one day before (it's easy to skim off the fat after the stock has been in the fridge overnight), discard the ribs and replacewith slices of tenderloin. You can use still the ribs for a barbeque or put themin the oven after seasoning with salt and black pepper, lime juice some olive oil and fresh thym.

After having removed the stock from the refrigerator, re-heat, add the spices and other ingredients, then add slices of tenderloin and cook around 5 minute.
Enjoy the original taste of betawi beef ribs soup, but whit tender and juicymeat that is practically fat-free!
