Yield Serves 8 to 10

Number Of Ingredients 10

5 pounds boneless beef short ribs, trimmed of excess fat
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 tablespoon peeled and finely chopped fresh ginger
1 tablespoon Biryani Spice Blend
12 cups homemade or store-bought low-sodium chicken stock
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Spiced Tomato Sauce
Spiced Rice with Peppers and Peas
Caramelized Onions with Ginger
Chopped fresh cilantro, for garnish

Steps:

  • Place beef in a large pot with garlic, ginger, spice blend, and chicken stock. Bring to a boil; reduce to a simmer and cook, uncovered, until tender, 3 to 4 hours. Remove meat from pot and transfer to a rimmed baking sheet, reserving the cooking liquid. Let meat dry, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Heat oil over medium-high in a Dutch oven or braiser. Working in batches, sear beef until browned all over, then return to baking sheet. Set Dutch oven aside to cool slightly. Using two forks, shred beef into 2-inch chunks. Return pot to low heat and add 2 cups reserved cooking liquid, stirring to deglaze. Add beef and tomato sauce, then bring to a simmer, cover, and cook for 15 minutes, stirring in additional reserved cooking liquid if the sauce becomes dry.
  • To serve, transfer half of the rice to a large shallow serving dish. Top with half of the meat mixture. Cover with remaining rice, then spoon remaining meat mixture on top. Garnish with caramelized onions and cilantro.

I got this recipe from an app on my iphone. Note the picture has the rice under the beef biryani instead of in it. My husband likes it that way but it should be mixed in.
