HUNGARIAN SHORT RIBS

Tender, falling apart beef ribs in a tangy sauce reminiscent of slow cooked barbecue. I've also made this with country style pork ribs (very, very good). The original recipe calls for cooking the noodles in the sauce, but I like to use a hearty noodle like bowties or kluski and cook separately, then mix in before serving.

Time 2h20m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 lbs short rib of beef
2 tablespoons cooking oil
2 medium onions, sliced
1 (15 ounce) tomato sauce
1 cup water
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup vinegar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
4 1/2 cups medium noodles
1 cup water

Steps:

  • I trim some of the fat from the short ribs. There is plenty marbled throughout to keep these moist. Brown ribs in a Dutch oven in hot oil.
  • Remove ribs and sauté onions until softened but not brown. Return ribs to pot.
  • Blend tomato sauce, 1 cup water, brown sugar, vinegar, salt, mustard, and Worcestershire. Pour over ribs.
  • Bring to boil, reduce heat to simmer, and cook 2 to 2 1/2 hours or until meat is tender.
  • Skim off fat.
  • Stir in noodles and additional 1 cup water.
  • Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, for 15 to 20 minutes until noodles are tender.

Tips:

  • To ensure the short ribs are fall-off-the-bone tender, braise them for at least 2 hours, or until the meat easily pulls away from the bone.
  • Use a heavy pot or Dutch oven for braising the short ribs, as it will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the ribs from burning.
  • Brown the short ribs in batches before braising them, as this will help to develop flavor and color.
  • Add a variety of vegetables to the pot when braising the short ribs, such as onions, carrots, celery, and garlic. This will help to add flavor and depth to the dish.
  • Use a good quality paprika for the best flavor. Hungarian paprika is a particularly good choice.
  • Serve the short ribs with mashed potatoes, egg noodles, or rice. You can also garnish the dish with fresh parsley or chives.

Conclusion:

Hungarian short ribs are a delicious and comforting dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a casual weeknight meal. The combination of tender meat, flavorful sauce, and hearty vegetables is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a new recipe to try, give Hungarian short ribs a try.
