Categories     Onions

Time 4h45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

6 large short rib of beef, bone in with excess fat trimmed off
1/4 cup grapeseed oil or 1/4 cup canola oil
2 tablespoons ghee (or clarified butter)
1 large onion, very finely chopped (approximately 1 cup)
1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic, more to taste
1 cup ground fresh tomato
1/2 cup red wine
4 cups vegetable stock or 4 cups chicken stock
1 tablespoon cumin seed
1 piece cinnamon bark (approximately 3 inches long)
1/2 teaspoon ground fenugreek, more to taste
1 tablespoon cumin powder, more to taste
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1/2 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon chili powder, more to taste (preferably Mexican)

Steps:

  • In a large, heavy saucepan with fitted lid, melt the ghee on medium to high heat.
  • Add the cooking oil and the cumin seeds.
  • Let the seeds sizzle for 30 seconds.
  • Smell the cinnamon bark before adding to the pot.
  • If it's very strong, break the bark in ½ and only use half.
  • If it's not strong enough, add ½ bark.
  • Add the onions& sauté until the onions are medium brown in colour.
  • Smell for the cinnamon throughout the cooking process.
  • You should smell a mild cinnamon flavour instead of a strong one.
  • If cinnamon is the only spice you smell, take out the bark and continue cooking the curry.
  • Add the garlic and continue to sauté until garlic is golden brown and onions are a darker brown.
  • The darker you sauté the onions without letting them burn, the richer the onion flavour will be in this dish.
  • Temporarily lower the heat and add the tomatoes and all of the remaining spices.
  • Once you stir the powdered spices in the tomatoes, increase the heat back to medium.
  • Stir regularly and continue cooking the spices until the oil/ghee separates from the tomatoes.
  • This will take about 10 to 15 minutes.
  • If at any time the onions or tomato spice mixture begins to stick to the bottom of the pan or looks like it's about to burn, either lower the heat or add 1 tablespoon of oil or ghee.
  • Do not add water.
  • This is meant to be a rich curry.
  • Stir in the stock and red wine and bring to a boil.
  • Reduce heat to low.
  • Cover and simmer for 15 minutes or until the oil/ghee separates from the stock and rises to the top, stirring occasionally.
  • Add the short ribs and stir well.
  • Bring back to a boil.
  • Reduce heat to low.
  • Cover and simmer the short ribs until the meat completely separates from the bone.
  • This will take approximately 4 hours and you will need to stir occasionally.

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h50m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

5 pounds bone-in short ribs
1/2 cup all-purpose flour, plus a pinch
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
2 tablespoons canola oil
3 large carrots
2 celery stalks
1 large white onion
One 6-ounce can tomato paste
2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
One 750-milliliter bottle red wine (use a good-quality wine you would drink)
3 tablespoons sugar
2 cups beef broth
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 bay leaves

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
  • Season the short ribs generously with the flour, salt and pepper. Heat a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over high heat and add the oil. Add the short ribs in batches and brown on all sides, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer the ribs to a plate.
  • Meanwhile, add the carrots, celery and onion to a food processor and pulse until the vegetables are almost a puree, about 30 seconds.
  • Reduce the heat under the pot to medium high, add the vegetable puree and saute, stirring often, until the veggies are softened, about 5 minutes. Add the tomato paste, Italian seasoning and a pinch of flour. Cook, stirring constantly, until the tomato paste darkens slightly, about 3 minutes. Slowly pour in the wine while whisking; whisk until smooth and combined. Add the sugar to the wine. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook until the wine is reduced by half, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Stir in the broth, garlic and bay leaves, bring to a boil, turn off the heat and add the ribs back to the pot. Cover, transfer to the oven and cook until the ribs are tender, about 3 hours. Serve over sweet potato polenta.

5 pounds very meaty bone-in beef short ribs, cut into 2-inch chunks
Good olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 cups chopped leeks, white and light green parts (3 leeks)
3 cups chopped celery (5 to 6 ribs)
2 cups chopped yellow onions (2 onions)
2 cups chopped unpeeled carrots (6 carrots)
1 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic (5 cloves)
1 (750-milliliter) bottle Burgundy, Cotes du Rhone, Chianti, or other dry red wine
4 cups beef stock, preferably homemade or College Inn
1 cup canned crushed tomatoes, such as San Marzano
1 (11.2-ounce) bottle Guinness draught stout
6 sprigs fresh thyme, tied with kitchen string
Toasted baguette, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Place the short ribs on a sheet pan, brush the tops with olive oil, and sprinkle with 1 1/2 tablespoons salt and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper. Roast for 20 minutes and remove from the oven. Reduce the temperature to 325 degrees F.
  • Meanwhile, heat 1/4 cup olive oil in a large (12-inch) Dutch oven, such as Le Creuset, over medium heat. Add the leeks, celery, onions, and carrots and cook over medium to medium-high heat for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the garlic and cook for one minute. Add the wine, bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer over medium heat for 10 minutes, until the liquid is reduced. Add the stock, tomatoes, Guinness, thyme, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper.
  • Place the ribs in the pot, along with the juices and seasonings from the sheet pan. Bring to a boil, cover, and cook in the oven for one hour. Uncover and cook for one more hour, until the meat is very tender.
  • Remove the short ribs to a plate with a slotted spoon and discard the thyme bundle and any bones that have separated from the meat. Simmer the sauce on the stove for 20 minutes, until reduced. Skim some of the fat off the top and discard. Return the ribs to the pot, heat for 5 minutes, and taste for seasonings. Serve hot in shallow bowls, with a toasted baguette and extra sauce on the side.

BEEF SHORT RIBS BRAISED IN BBQ RED WINE SAUCE



Beef Short Ribs Braised in BBQ Red Wine Sauce image

Cook 'em low and slow. That's the secret to tender short ribs. I like mine spicy, rich, and mahogany brown.

Yield feeds 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/4 cup flour
1 tablespoon Creole Seasoning (page 167)
8 beef short ribs (3 1/2 to 4 pounds)
1/4 cup olive oil
1 large onion, sliced into thin slivers
1 green pepper, sliced into thin slivers
2 jalapeño peppers, seeded and minced
3 bay leaves
Kosher salt and black pepper
4 large cloves garlic, minced
1 cup dry red wine
1 1/4 cups Mutha Sauce (page 165)
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 cup water
2 teaspoons chopped fresh Italian parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325°. Mix up the flour and Creole Seasoning. Roll the ribs around in it til they're coated on all sides. Fire up a skillet over medium-high heat and add the oil. Brown the ribs til crusty on all sides, about 5 minutes per side. (If the ribs don't all fit in the pan at once without crowding, do them in batches.) Move the ribs to a baking pan just big enough to hold them close.
  • Pour off all but 2 tablespoons of the hot oil from the skillet. Toss in the onions, green peppers, jalapeños, and bay leaves and cook, scraping in all those tasty brown bits clinging to the bottom of the pan. Season with a big pinch of salt and a dash of pepper, and cook til soft and light brown; then add the garlic and cook a minute more.
  • Pour in the red wine and let it bubble for 1 minute while scraping the skillet again. Add the Mutha sauce, thyme, and water and simmer for a couple of minutes til blended.
  • Douse the ribs with the sauce and cover the pan snugly with foil. Bake for 2 hours. Remove from the oven and uncover. Skim off the fat floating on the surface. Stir up the sauce and taste for seasonings. Give the ribs a flip, cover them up again, and pop them back in the oven for another half hour or so, til they're fork tender. Pull the ribs out of the oven, and fish out and discard the bay leaves. Reduce pan sauce if necessary. Serve each person 2 hot and steamy, well-sauced ribs sprinkled with parsley.

GARLIC BRAISED SHORT RIBS WITH RED WINE



Garlic Braised Short Ribs With Red Wine image

If you weren't already sure about how easy and delicious braised short ribs can be, consider this classic and straightforward recipe an excellent gateway. The ultimate hands-off, do-ahead dinner, these are done on the stovetop in a large Dutch oven but can easily be adapted to a slow cooker if that's your thing. When purchasing the ribs, ask for the thickest, meatiest ones available as they tend to shrink quite a bit once braised.

Categories     meat, soups and stews, main course

Time 4h30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
5 pounds bone-in short ribs, at least 1 1/2 inches thick
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 large heads garlic, halved crosswise
1 medium onion (about 10 ounces), chopped
4 ribs celery (about 8 ounces, chopped
2 medium carrots (about 6 ounces), chopped
3 tablespoons tomato paste
2 cups dry red wine (about half a bottle)
2 cups beef stock or bone broth (use beef bouillon dissolved in water if unavailable; chicken stock will work in a pinch), plus more as needed
4 sprigs thyme
1 cup parsley, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup finely chopped chives
1 tablespoon finely grated lemon zest

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 275 degrees. Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season short ribs on all sides with salt and pepper. Working in batches, sear short ribs on all sides until deeply and evenly browned, 6 to 8 minutes per batch. Transfer browned short ribs to a large plate and continue with remaining ribs.
  • Pour off all but 2 tablespoons of remaining fat, leaving the good browned bits behind. Reduce heat to medium, and add garlic, cut side down and cook, undisturbed, until golden brown, about 1 to 2 minutes. Add onion, celery and carrots and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat and continue to cook until vegetables are softened but not yet browned, about 5 to 10 minutes. Add tomato paste and stir to coat. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until tomato paste has started to caramelize a bit on the bottom and up the edges of the pot, about 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Add red wine and, using a wooden spoon, scrape up any browned or caramelized bits. Let this simmer 2 to 3 minutes, just to take the edge off and reduce a bit. Stir in beef stock along with thyme. Using tongs, return short ribs to the pot, along with any juices that have accumulated, nestling them in there so that they are submerged (if they are just barely covered, nestle them bone side up so that all the meat is submerged, adding more beef stock or water as necessary to cover). Bring to a simmer, then cover and transfer to oven.
  • Cook, undisturbed, until short ribs are meltingly tender and falling off the bone (you should be able to shred the meat with a fork), 3½ to 4 hours.
  • Using tongs, remove the ribs from the pot, taking care (for presentation purposes, really) not to let the bone slip out and transfer them to a large plate. (While you could serve the short ribs right out of this pot, the vegetables have all given up their flavor and texture and aren't worth much now, so feel free to strain the sauce for easier eating.) Scatter parsley, chives and lemon zest over the top of the short ribs. Separate the fat from the sauce, season with salt and pepper and serve alongside.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality beef short ribs that are well-marbled for a more flavorful dish.
  • Use a Dutch oven or braising pan with a tight-fitting lid to ensure the ribs cook evenly and the sauce reduces properly.
  • Brown the ribs well in a hot pan before braising to develop a rich, caramelized flavor.
  • Add a variety of vegetables to the braising liquid for added flavor and nutrition.
  • Use a good quality red wine for the sauce, as it will add depth and complexity of flavor.
  • Season the sauce to taste with salt, pepper, and herbs such as thyme, rosemary, and bay leaves.
  • Cook the ribs until they are fall-off-the-bone tender, which may take several hours.
  • Serve the ribs with mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or polenta for a hearty and satisfying meal.
