1 small fennel, fronds, stems, and core removed, large-diced

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup grapeseed oil
4 pounds beef short ribs (1-inch thick, 3 bone racks)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
12 cups beef stock
2 cups mirepoix, small dice carrots, celery and onions
1 cup tomato paste
1/2 cup merlot or other red wine
1 tablespoon minced garlic
3 tablespoons fresh parsley and thyme leaves, minced
3 pounds peeled potatoes, medium dice
8 ounces unsalted butter
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon white pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Heat a roasting pan over high heat with the oil. Sprinkle the ribs with salt and pepper. Add the ribs to the pan, then reduce the heat to medium. Sear on both the top and bottom of the meat, 2 to 3 minutes per side, reserving the pan drippings. After searing the ribs, add the stock, mirepoix, tomato paste, merlot, garlic and the reserved pan drippings to the pan. Tightly cover and cook in the oven for 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Remove the pan from the oven and check the ribs, which should be fork tender. If need be, continue cooking to achieve desired tenderness. Next remove the ribs and reserve the liquid to create sauce.
  • Pour the reserved cooking liquid through a strainer, then discard the remaining vegetables. In a saucepan, blend the herbs and liquid over medium-high heat. Reduce the liquid by three-quarters, yielding 3 cups of sauce. Pass the reduced sauce through a strainer, then set aside and keep warm.
  • For the potatoes: In a large pot, bring 1 gallon of water to a boil. Add the potatoes and cook until softened, 15 to 18 minutes, then drain. Pass the potatoes and butter through a food mill or ricer into a bowl. Next add the salt and pepper, and then blend with a whisk. Taste and add additional salt and pepper if needed.
  • To serve, place the mashed potatoes in the center of the plate, top with a short rib, and finish with the warm sauce. Repeat for the remaining short ribs.

1 bunch fresh thyme
1 bunch fresh flat-leaf parsley
2 fresh bay leaves or 1 dried
1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon fennel seed
1 tablespoon mustard seed
1 head garlic, peeled and coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons kosher salt
3/4 cup olive oil
3 cups onions, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces (about 3 medium onions)
2 1/2 cups carrots, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces (about 6 medium carrots)
2 1/2 cups celery, leaves removed and cut into 1/2-inch pieces (about 6 celery ribs)
1/2 pound white mushrooms, trimmed and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
6 cups veal stock or low-sodium chicken broth
1 cup carrots, peeled and diced (about 2 medium carrots)
1 cup celery, leaves removed and diced (about 2 celery ribs)
2 tablespoons fresh horseradish, grated

Steps:

  • In resealable, 2-gallon plastic bag, place short ribs. Add wine, thyme, parsley, bay leaves, 1 tablespoon pepper, fennel seed, mustard seed, and garlic. Place bag in large bowl and marinate in refrigerate for at least 8 hours and up to 24 hours.
  • Remove ribs from marinade and drain, reserving liquid. Pat ribs dry and sprinkle with kosher salt and remaining 2 teaspoons pepper.
  • Put rack in middle position in oven and preheat to 325°F.
  • In heavy, 12-inch skillet over moderately high heat, heat 1/4 cup oil just until smoking. Working in 3 batches (wipe pan clean and add 1/4 cup oil between batches), sear ribs, turning with tongs, until well-browned on all sides, about 8 minutes total. Transfer ribs, bone side up and in 1 layer, to a 3- to 4-inch deep roasting pan and set aside. Do not clean skillet.
  • Add onions, carrots, celery, and mushrooms to skillet. Over moderately high heat, sauté until onions start to soften, about 15 minutes.

Add stock and bring to boil. Pour stock mixture over ribs and cover with foil. Transfer to oven and braise until meat is tender and falling off bone, about 2 1/2 hours. Let cool slightly.
  • When ribs are cool enough to handle, remove any excess fat and discard bones. Transfer beef, reserving liquid, to bowl and cover with foil to keep warm.
  • Strain cooking liquid through fine-mesh sieve and into medium saucepan, pressing on solids. Discard solids and skim fat. Add carrots and celery and bring to a boil. Continue cooking until reduced to about 2 1/2 cups, about 25 minutes. To serve, spoon braising liquid over sauce, making sure to include carrots and celery, and finish with horseradish.

BRAISED BEEF SHORT RIBS WITH ROSEMARY AND FENNEL



Braised Beef Short Ribs with Rosemary and Fennel image

Number Of Ingredients 16

6 cups garlic
1 large onion cut into chunks (about 2 cups)
4 pounds meaty beef short ribs (about 6 ribs) cut into sections
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large or 2 medium fennel bulbs cut into 8 wedges (cut in half, then halve again, and then cut wedges, you should have about 3 cups)
1/4 cup finely minced nitrite free bacon (about 2 strips)
1 cup dry red wine
1 cup port wine
3 cups low salt chicken broth
2 1/2 cups canned crushed or diced tomatoes (not puree, it will be too runny)
1/2 teaspoon allspice
4 stalks fresh rosemary
3 bay leaves
small bunch parsley
salt and pepper
chopped parsley for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Tie the rosemary, bay leaves, and small bunch of parsley together with kitchen twine, making a bouquet garni. Puree garlic and onion in food processor. Next, brown the short ribs. You will probably have to do them in several batches. Heat olive oil in a very large ovenproof casserole over high heat until really hot, then add short ribs. Brown on all sides, cooking 1-2 min - utes per side. Transfer to a platter. When you've finished browning all the short ribs, pour off excess fat, then add the fennel and bacon to the pan. Turn heat down to medium-high. Cook until the bacon crisps up, stirring often. Transfer to platter. Add the onion and garlic puree to the pan and cook about 5 minutes. Add the red wine and, using a wooden spoon, deglaze the pan by scraping up any brown bits that have stuck to the bottom and sides. Add the port, the chicken broth, tomatoes, bouquet garni, allspice, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer. Add the ribs, fennel, and bacon. Cover the pot and put in the oven. Cook 2 1/2-3 hours until meat is falling off the bones and is very tender. Put ribs on serving platter, pour sauce over top, and sprinkle with chopped parsley. Serve with Polenta, Mashed Potatoes, or broad noodles, and a green salad.
