SHORT RIBS BRAISED WITH MUSHROOMS AND TOMATOES



Short Ribs Braised with Mushrooms and Tomatoes image

The short ribs are slowly braised with easy-to-find dried porcini mushrooms (for real, ask someone at the fancy grocery store and they'll find them for you!) until they turn into a triumph of fork-tender goodness. I love these short ribs over mashed potatoes, but the rich tomato and mushroom gravy is fantastic over soft polenta as well. I really hope you give this cool weather wonder a try.

Categories     main-dish

Time 4h20m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

8 short ribs (12 ounces each), trimmed and tied by a butcher
8 shallots
11 cloves garlic
1/4 cup tomato paste
6 ounces pancetta, diced
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons cognac or brandy
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups red wine
1/4 ounce dried porcini mushrooms
4 sprigs fresh thyme
2 bay leaves
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
10 ounces oyster mushrooms, trimmed
10 ounces cremini mushrooms, trimmed and halved

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Bring the short ribs to room temperature. Meanwhile, pulse the shallots, 10 cloves garlic and the tomato paste in a food processor to make a paste. Cook the pancetta in a large ovenproof pot over medium-high heat until crisp, about 7 minutes. Transfer the pancetta and all but 2 tablespoons drippings to a bowl.
  • Add the shallot mixture to the pot and cook, stirring, until brown, about 6 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and add 1/2 cup cognac, scraping up the browned bits. Sprinkle in the flour and cook, stirring, about 5 more minutes. Gradually stir in the wine until smooth. Add the porcini, thyme, bay leaves and 11/2 teaspoons salt.
  • Season the short ribs with salt and pepper, place in the pot and add water to cover. Trim a piece of parchment paper so that it rests on the surface of the meat. Cover the pot with the lid and transfer to the oven. Cook until the meat is fork-tender, about 3 hours.
  • Remove the meat from the sauce and transfer to a plate. Set the sauce aside, about 10 minutes, then skim off the fat. (If the sauce is thick, add a splash of water.) Discard the bay leaves, season the sauce with salt and pepper and add the remaining 2 tablespoons cognac. Return the short ribs to the sauce and keep warm over low heat.
  • Chop the remaining 1 clove garlic, then mash with 1/2 teaspoon salt using the flat side of a knife; add the parsley and chop. Heat the pancetta and the reserved drippings in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the oyster and cremini mushrooms and cook until brown, about 10 minutes. Toss in the parsley mixture. Untie the short ribs, divide among plates and top with the sauce and mushrooms.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of short ribs: Look for short ribs that are well-marbled with fat, as this will help keep the meat moist and flavorful during the braising process.
  • Brown the short ribs before braising: Browning the short ribs in a hot pan before braising them will help develop their flavor and color.
  • Use a variety of vegetables and herbs: The vegetables and herbs that you add to the braising liquid will help to create a flavorful and aromatic sauce. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, garlic, thyme, and rosemary.
  • Cook the short ribs until they are fall-off-the-bone tender: The short ribs should be cooked until they are fall-off-the-bone tender, which will take about 2-3 hours. You can check for doneness by inserting a fork into the meat; it should slide in easily.
  • Serve the short ribs with a variety of sides: Short ribs can be served with a variety of sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.

Conclusion:

Braised short ribs are a delicious and comforting dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. By following the tips in this article, you can make sure that your short ribs turn out perfectly every time.
