Time 1h45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 lbs meaty bone-in short ribs (about 6 pieces in 3-inch pieces)
kosher salt & freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more as necessary
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups dry red wine
2 medium carrots, peeled and cut crosswise in half
2 stalks celery, cut into thirds
2 leeks, whites and light green parts only, cut crosswise in 3-inch pieces
1 head garlic, cut in half crosswise
1 bay leaf
3/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 cup low sodium beef broth
3/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 1/2 lbs fingerling potatoes, scrubbed
chopped mixed herbs, for serving, such as parsley, dill, chives, thyme, and or cilantro

Steps:

  • Preheat Instant Pot to saute setting.
  • Dry short ribs and season generously with salt. Add olive oil to pot and swirl to coat. When smoking, add short ribs, in batches, and saute until deeply golden brown, about 5 minutes per side.
  • Remove ribs to a plate as they finish and replenish or drain oil as necessary to maintain approximately 2 tablespoons per batch. Return all ribs to pot, sprinkle with flour and toss to coat.
  • Add wine and reduce by half, about 8 minutes, scraping bottom of pot to deglaze. (This can also be done in a skillet over high heat. Saute timing will be reduced. Transfer ribs and pan sauce to Instant Pot before proceeding.).
  • Arrange ribs in as even a layer as possible and disperse carrots, celery, leeks, garlic, bay leaf, and red pepper flakes throughout. Add broth, bring to a simmer, and top with fingerling potatoes. Season all vegetables generously with salt and pepper.
  • Top with lid and place on high pressure. Cook 45 minutes and then allow pressure to release naturally for 30 minutes. Uncover and remove ribs and vegetables with a slotted spoon. Tent with foil to keep warm.
  • Transfer cooking liquid to a fat separator or measuring cup and skim fat. If desired, return sauce to Instant Pot and reduce to desired consistency. Season sauce with salt and pepper.
  • Serve ribs with potatoes, vegetables, and sauce, garnished with herbs.

INSTANT POT® SHORT RIBS



Instant Pot® Short Ribs image

It's easy to love fall-off-the-bone short ribs. The only problem with a traditional braising recipe is that it will be hours before eating happens. Make short ribs in an electric pressure cooker and eat these in half the time. The pressure inside the cooker transforms any liquid into hot steam, which goes deep into the meat and produce far more tender ribs than any other method would make. Less time and better? You bet.

Time 10h4m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 (750 milliliter) bottle full-bodied red wine
4 pounds beef short ribs
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 cup all-purpose flour
¼ cup olive oil
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 ½ cups chopped white onion
1 cup peeled and minced carrots
2 cloves garlic, sliced
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
1 quart chicken stock, or as needed
¼ cup water
2 tablespoons cornstarch

Steps:

  • Pour red wine over short ribs in a large bowl. Marinate in the refrigerator, 8 hours to overnight.
  • Remove ribs from marinade, saving marinade for later use. Season short ribs with salt and pepper. Coat 1 side of each short rib with flour.
  • Select the "Saute" setting on an electric pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®); add olive oil and butter. Cook and stir until butter melts, about 2 minutes. Add 3 short ribs to hot butter-oil mixture. Cook until bottom is browned, about 8 minutes. Transfer browned short ribs to a plate. Repeat cooking with remaining short ribs, reserving butter-oil mixture in the pot.
  • Cook and stir onion, carrots, garlic, and rosemary in the hot butter-oil mixture, scraping browned bits off the sides of pot, until onion is softened and starting to brown, about 5 minutes. Add reserved wine marinade; stir well. Simmer until wine is reduced by 1/2, about 10 minutes.
  • Return ribs to the pot; add chicken stock. Ensure the total volume does not go above the maximum fill line and that the bulk of the ribs are submerged. Seal the pressure cooker. Turn the venting knob on top to "Sealed", causing the floating valve to pop up.
  • Press the "Manual" button; set timer for 35 minutes. Tap the venting knob with a wooden spoon or spatula. Stand back; turn knob to point at "Vent." Remove lid when pressure is released, about 5 minutes.
  • Transfer the ribs to a plate and cover with aluminum foil, reserving sauce in the pot.
  • Turn the Instant Pot to "Saute". Simmer sauce until slightly reduced, about 5 minutes. Stir water and cornstarch together in a bowl until smooth; add to sauce in the pot. Cook for 3 minutes. Strain sauce and serve over ribs.

1 (32 fluid ounce) container beef broth, divided
2 cups dry lentils, rinsed and drained
1 (10 ounce) package sliced fresh mushrooms
3 carrots, chopped

  • Transfer ribs to a cutting board and remove any remaining fat. Shred the meat and return it to the pot, along with the bones.
  • Cover meat with lentils, mushrooms, carrots, and remaining celery; stir to combine. Pour in remaining beef broth and water until 1/2 inch higher than food. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 20 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality short ribs: Look for ribs that are well-marbled with fat, as this will help keep them moist and flavorful during cooking.
  • Brown the ribs before braising: This step is essential for developing rich, caramelized flavors in the meat.
  • Use a flavorful braising liquid: The liquid you use to braise the ribs will infuse them with flavor, so choose something flavorful and aromatic, such as beef broth, red wine, or a combination of both.
  • Add vegetables to the braising liquid: Vegetables like carrots, celery, and onions will add flavor and texture to the dish.
  • Cook the ribs until fall-off-the-bone tender: This will take at least 2 hours, but it's worth the wait.
  • Serve the ribs with your favorite sides: Mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple green salad are all great options.

Conclusion:

Instant Pot Braised Short Ribs with Fingerling Potatoes is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. The ribs are fall-off-the-bone tender and packed with flavor, and the fingerling potatoes are roasted to perfection.
