Categories     main-dish

Time 4h10m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 39

3 large onions, coarsely chopped
3 to 4 stalks celery, coarsely chopped
4 large carrots, peeled, trimmed and cut into 2-inch chunks
2 beets, peeled, trimmed and cut into 1-inch cubes
3 heads garlic, cut in half
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
2 sprigs fresh thyme
1 star anise
1 cinnamon stick
6 beef short ribs
Coarse salt
1 cup all-purpose flour
Canola oil
2 (750 ml) bottles red table wine
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 cup brown sugar
1 to 2 tablespoons butter, a nub
Handful peppercorns
Garlic Mashed Potatoes, recipe follows
Oil-Poached Cherry Tomatoes on the Vine, recipe follows
Green Beans, recipe follows
1 head garlic
1 tablespoon good, fruity olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
A sprig or 2 of fresh herbs (rosemary or thyme)
6 large Yukon Gold potatoes, scrubbed but not peeled, and quartered.
1 stick butter
1 cup cream
1 to 2 cups good olive oil (enough to just cover tomatoes in pan)
Pinch coarse or kosher salt
2 sprigs fresh herbs
1/2 head garlic, sliced in half
4 vine stems of cherry tomatoes
5 handfuls small green beans (petit haricots verts)
Water
Salt
1 large shallot
2 tablespoons butter
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a large bowl, combine the onion, celery, carrots, beets and garlic. Add the rosemary, thyme, star anise, and cinnamon stick, and set aside.
  • Cut the ribs between the bones, and trim all the excess outer fat. Season the ribs well with coarse salt. Dredge in flour until well coated.
  • In a large Dutch oven or wide soup pot on high heat, pour in enough oil to coat the bottom of the pan. Add the ribs to the hot oil, and sear the ribs so they are browned well on all sides, about 3 minutes per side. Remove the ribs, and set aside.
  • In the same pan, transfer all the vegetables from the bowl, and stir to caramelize, and pick up all the brown bits. Add the meat back into the pot. Pour the wine over top. Ensure all is covered with the liquid and if not, top up with water.
  • Add the cocoa powder, brown sugar and peppercorns, and bring to a boil, cover with a lid or foil, and place in the oven until the meat is fork tender, about 3 hours. Remove the ribs to a platter, and strain out the solids to use for something else.
  • Boil the cooking liquid in a wide shallow pan until it is reduced by half. It will be richer, more flavorful and thicker. Add a nub of butter at the end for sheen and flavor.
  • Serve the short ribs on a mound of Garlic Mashed Potatoes, topped with Green Beans and Poached Vine tomatoes, recipes follow.
  • Slice the top off a garlic head and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt, pepper and the fresh herbs. Wrap in a tin foil packet, and roast in the oven for about 1 hour.
  • Fill a large saucepan with water; add a few good pinches of coarse salt and the potatoes. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat and simmer until just fork tender. Do not overcook or the potatoes will be soggy. Drain off the water, leaving the potatoes in the pot.
  • Add the butter and cream to the potatoes, and mash well.
  • Remove the garlic from the oven. Squeeze the garlic cloves into the potatoes, and stir in. The consistency you want is rough, with some lumps. Season the potatoes with salt, and pepper, if desired.
  • In a large saute pan, add about 2 inches of olive oil. Bring to about 325 degrees F - just below frying temperature. Season with salt, herbs and toss in the garlic. Carefully place the tomatoes in the oil, and poach until they swell up and almost burst, about 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the tomatoes and use to garnish the beef short ribs.
  • Trim only the stem ends off the beans. Blanche the beans in a pot of salted boiling water for about 20 seconds. Drain, and immerse in an ice water bath to stop the cooking. Drain the beans on a towel. The beans should be original green in color and crunchy to the bite.
  • Slice the shallot into fine julienne. In a large saute pan, on high heat, add the butter and shallot. Stir until softened. Add the beans, and toss to warm through. Season with salt, and black pepper, if desired.
  • Serve the beans in a little mound on top of the beef short rib. Top with a poached stem of tomatoes.

BRAISED SHORT RIBS AND CARROTS

Provided by Ree Drummond Bio & Top Recipes

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h45m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 tablespoons salted butter, melted
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
1 lemon, zested
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
8 short ribs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
6 tablespoons salted butter
2 tablespoons tomato paste
8 large carrots
4 cloves garlic
1 onion, sliced thin
4 cups beef stock
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
2 bay leaves

Steps:

  • For the breadcrumbs: Melt the butter in a large heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Add the panko breadcrumbs and toast until golden, 1 to 2 minutes, then remove to a bowl. Add the parsley, lemon zest and a pinch of salt and pepper to the bowl, then toss to combine. Set aside and allow to cool, then cover until ready to use.
  • For the short ribs and carrots: Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
  • Season the short ribs generously with salt and pepper. Return the pot used for the breadcrumbs to the stovetop over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and 4 tablespoons of the butter. When the butter has melted and the oil is hot, add the short ribs and sear on all sides, about 45 seconds per side. Remove to a plate. Add the tomato paste, carrots, garlic and onion. Stir and allow the tomato paste to cook for a minute. Pour in the beef stock and add the short ribs back to the pot; add the rosemary and bay leaves. Cover and place in the oven. Cook until the ribs are fork-tender and falling off the bone, 3 to 3 1/2 hours.
  • Remove the carrots to a platter and use the back of a fork to mash them. Place the remaining 2 tablespoons butter over the top, followed by the short ribs. Skim the fat from the braising liquid and transfer the liquid it to a server. Garnish with the buttery panko breadcrumbs and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right short ribs: Look for short ribs that are well-marbled with fat, as this will help them stay moist and flavorful during cooking.
  • Brown the short ribs before braising: This will help develop their flavor and create a delicious caramelized crust.
  • Use a flavorful braising liquid: The braising liquid is what will give the short ribs their flavor, so be sure to use a combination of flavorful ingredients such as beef broth, red wine, and vegetables.
  • Cook the short ribs until they are fall-off-the-bone tender: This will typically take at least 2 hours, but it may take longer depending on the size and thickness of the ribs.
  • Make the potato-carrot mash while the short ribs are braising: This will save you time and allow you to serve the dish hot and fresh.

Conclusion:

Beef short ribs are a delicious and hearty dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a casual weeknight meal. When braised until fall-off-the-bone tender, the short ribs are melt-in-your-mouth tender and full of flavor. The potato-carrot mash is a creamy and flavorful side dish that complements the short ribs perfectly. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
