Asian Inspired Beef Short Ribs
These are such a "flavour bomb" of comfort food.
Ingredients
- 5 lbs beef short ribs
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and Pepper
- 4 tablespoons grated ginger
- 4 tablespoons grated garlic
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 large white onion, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup sesame oil
- 1/4 cup yuzo sauce
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon hot Chiles, or to taste
- 2 cups stewed tomatoes
- 2 teaspoons corn starch
- 3 tablespoons water
- Scallions for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F.
- Season each piece of beef generously with salt and pepper. Add olive oil, chopped onion to a large dutch oven.
- Over medium heat sear the beef in batches for 1-2 minutes on each side or until they are caramelized and evenly browned.
- In a small bowl prepare the sauce - add ginger, garlic, honey, sesame oil, yuzu sauce, soy sauce, chilies, and mix well together.
- Once all the beef pieces are browned, pour the sauce over the ribs into the hot pan to deglaze. Use a wooden spoon to scrape up all the flavour and bits and pieces from the bottom of the pan. Simmer for about 5 minutes. Add stewed tomatoes and add 2 cups of water.
- Cover the dutch oven with a lid or tin foil and braise in the oven for two to three hours until the meat is melting off the bones.
- Take the ribs out of the sauce and set them aside. Skim the visible fat off the top of the sauce and discard.
- In a small bowl mix 2 teaspoons of corn starch and 3 tablespoons of water and mix together to make a slurry. Mix the slurry into the hot sauce to thicken it. Cook for ten minutes until the sauce thickens.
- Put the ribs back into the sauce and coat the ribs with the sauce.
- Serve the ribs over rice or mashed potatoes and sauteed greens.
