Ingredients

4 carrots, chopped
2 leeks, rinsed well and chopped
3 pounds bone-in beef short ribs, fat trimmed
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup reduced-sodium beef broth
1/3 cup sherry
1/4 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce

Heat a large Dutch oven and arrange carrots and leeks on the bottom. Season ribs all over with salt and pepper and place over vegetables. In a medium bowl, whisk together broth, sherry, soy sauce, honey, vinegar, ginger, and garlic. Pour mixture over ribs. Cover and braise for 3 to 4 hours.

If you don't have fresh lime juice, you can use 1 tablespoon of bottled lime juice.
You can adjust the amount of chili peppers to your taste. If you like it spicy, add more chili peppers. If you don't like it spicy, omit the chili peppers.
If you don't have jasmine rice, you can use another type of long-grain rice, such as basmati rice or brown rice.
To make the rice more flavorful, you can add other ingredients, such as chopped cilantro, green onions, or peanuts.
