Categories     main-dish

Time 3h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

5 pounds beef short ribs, cut into 4-ounce portions
1 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
3 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed
1 (5-inch) stalk lemongrass, halved and smashed
1 tablespoon peeled and minced ginger
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1 quart water
1/2 cup sliced green onion bottoms, white part only
3/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1/4 cup fresh orange juice
1/4 cup hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Jasmine Rice, for serving
2 teaspoons finely grated orange rind, for serving
Sliced green onion tops, optional for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a wide stockpot or Dutch oven, combine the short ribs, soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, lemongrass, ginger, brown sugar, water, green onion bottoms, crushed red pepper, and 2 tablespoons of the orange juice. Make sure that the stockpot is deep enough so that the short ribs are submerged in the liquid.
  • Bake the short ribs, covered, for about 3 hours, or until the meat is tender and falling off the bones. Remove the short ribs from the braising liquid and cover to keep warm. Increase the oven temperature to 425 degrees F.
  • Drain the fat off of the cooking liquid and discard. Place the remaining braising juices in a medium saucepan with 1/4 cup of the hoisin sauce and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the liquid until only about 1 1/4 cups remain. Strain through a fine-meshed strainer, discarding the solids. Stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons of orange juice and the lemon juice.
  • Return the short ribs and the reduced sauce to the stockpot or Dutch oven, coating the short ribs well with the sauce. Bake for 10 minutes, until the short ribs are heated through and slightly glazed. Serve hot over jasmine rice. Season each portion with the orange zest and garnish with the green onions if desired.

BEEF SHORT RIBS WITH ASIAN FLAVORS

Categories     Pressure Cooker     Onion     Dinner     Vinegar     Dried Fruit     Prune     Beef Rib     Fall     Sesame     Soy Sauce     Bon Appétit     Dairy Free     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     No Sugar Added     Kosher

Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups coarsely chopped onions
1 cup beef broth
12 2- to 3-inch-long meaty beef short ribs (about 4 pounds)
3 tablespoons hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon oriental sesame oil
1 cup (packed) pitted large prunes
2 tablespoons all purpose flour
Chopped green onions
Special Equipment
pressure cooker

Steps:

  • Combine onions and broth in 6- to 8-quart pressure cooker. Place ribs in large bowl. Add hoisin sauce, soy sauce, vinegar, and sesame oil; toss to coat evenly. Transfer ribs and all juices from bowl to cooker. Scatter prunes over. Lock lid in place. Bring to high pressure over high heat. Cook 35 minutes, adjusting heat as necessary to maintain high pressure. Remove from heat. Let pressure come down naturally, about 20 minutes.
  • Slowly release lid, standing back and allowing steam to escape. If ribs are not tender, lock on lid, return cooker to high pressure, and cook 5 minutes longer. Remove from heat. Let pressure come down naturally.
  • Using slotted spoon, transfer ribs and prunes to large shallow bowl. Tent with foil to keep warm. Tilt cooker; spoon 1 tablespoon fat into small bowl and reserve. Spoon off remaining fat and discard. Mix flour into reserved 1 tablespoon fat to form smooth paste. Bring sauce in cooker to boil; whisk in flour paste. Boil until sauce thickens, whisking often, about 1 minute. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Pour sauce over ribs; sprinkle with green onions and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right short ribs: Look for short ribs that are well-marbled with fat, as this will help keep them moist during cooking. Beef short ribs are typically labeled as "Flanken-style" or "English-style." Flanken-style short ribs are cut across the bone, while English-style short ribs are cut between the bones.
  • Brown the short ribs before braising: This step helps to develop flavor and color. Be sure to brown the short ribs in a hot pan so that they get a good sear.
  • Use a flavorful braising liquid: The braising liquid is what will give the short ribs their flavor, so be sure to use a liquid that you enjoy. Some good options include beef broth, chicken broth, red wine, or a combination of these. You can also add vegetables, herbs, and spices to the braising liquid for extra flavor.
  • Braise the short ribs until they are fall-off-the-bone tender: This will typically take 2-3 hours, but it may take longer depending on the type of short ribs you are using. You can check the tenderness of the short ribs by inserting a fork into them. If the fork goes in easily, the short ribs are done.
  • Serve the short ribs with your favorite sides: Some good options include mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or rice.

Conclusion:

Short ribs are a delicious and versatile cut of meat that can be cooked in a variety of ways. Braising is a great way to cook short ribs, as it allows the meat to become fall-off-the-bone tender. When braising short ribs, be sure to choose the right cut of meat, brown the short ribs before braising, use a flavorful braising liquid, and braise the short ribs until they are fall-off-the-bone tender. Serve the short ribs with your favorite sides and enjoy!
