Short Rib And Vegetable Stew Recipes

HEARTY SHORT RIB STEW

Steps:

• For the stew: Heat the oil and butter in a Dutch oven over a medium-high heat. Sprinkle the short ribs with salt and pepper, then brown in batches on all sides in the pan, about 3 minutes. Remove and set aside.
• Add the garlic, onions and carrots to the pan and toss in the drippings. Stir in the tomato paste and allow to cook until it has combined with the vegetables, for 1 minute. Deglaze the pan with the beer and beef stock. Add the Worcestershire sauce, rosemary, bay leaves and the browned short ribs. Cover and cook over a low heat until very tender, 2 to 2 1/2 hours. Stir in the parsley. Remove the rosemary and bay leaves before serving.
• For the buttered egg noodles: Cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and toss with the butter and parsley. Serve the stew over the buttered noodles.

SHORT RIB AND VEGETABLE STEW

Steps:

• Cover short ribs with cold water and soak, chilled, at least 2 hours.
• Drain ribs and transfer to an 8-to 10-quart heavy pot with cold water (8 cups). Simmer ribs, partially covered, skimming any foam, 2 hours. Chill ribs in liquid (covered once cool) until fat solidifies, about 4 hours.
• Meanwhile, soak mushrooms in hot water (4 cups), turning occasionally, until softened, about 1 hour. Squeeze excess liquid from mushrooms and reserve 2 cups soaking liquid; cut off and discard mushroom stems, then halve caps.
• Discard fat from ribs and return to a simmer. Peel potatoes and cut into 1-inch pieces, then add to ribs with radish, carrots, garlic, dates (if using), soy sauce, fish sauce, molasses, red-pepper paste, mushrooms, reserved mushroom-soaking liquid, and water (if necessary) to barely cover meat and vegetables with liquid. Simmer, partially covered, stirring occasionally, 30 minutes.
• Stir in onion and scallions and simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, until meat is very tender and vegetables are tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Skim off any fat, then stir in sesame oil. Stir before serving and serve additional red-pepper paste on the side.

QUICK SHORT RIB STEW

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place 1/2 cup of flour in a heavy plastic bag or large bowl; add the ribs and toss until completely coated. Pour the oil into the preheated pan, heat until shimmering. Shake any excess flour off of the ribs, then add them to the hot oil. Brown well on all sides without burning, about 10 minutes.
• While the ribs are browning, stir together the hot water and bouillon cubes in a pressure cooker until dissolved. Using tongs, remove the ribs from the skillet, and place into the pressure cooker. Seal according to manufacturer's directions and cook for 25 minutes.
• After 25 minutes, release pressure, and open cooker according to manufacturer's directions. Pour in the canned tomatoes, garlic, onion, and carrots. Simmer, uncovered until the vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, cook the diced potatoes in enough water to cover until tender, about 20 minutes.
• Remove the meat to a serving platter. Stir together 3 tablespoons of flour with 1 cup of water. Stir into the vegetables, and cook until the sauce thickens, about 5 minutes.
• Drain the cooked potatoes, and add to the stew along with the can of peas. Heat until warmed through, then season to taste with salt and pepper.

RED WINE-BRAISED SHORT RIB STEW WITH POTATOES, CARROTS, AND MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Prepare the short ribs: In a large oven-safe pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat, heat the ghee or olive oil.
• Pat the short ribs dry with paper towels and season with the sea salt. Gently place the short ribs in the hot ghee or oil and sear on all sides until golden brown, about 4 minutes per side, turning as needed and searing in batches if needed to avoid overcrowding the pot. Transfer to a plate.
• To the same pot, add the onion, carrot and celery and cook until the veggies begin to brown, stirring as needed to avoid burning, about 5 minutes.
• Add the wine and deglaze the pot, scraping the browned bits loose from the bottom of the pot. Add the thyme and garlic and bring to a simmer. Let the wine reduce by half, about 10 minutes, then remove the pot form the heat.
• Place the browned short ribs into the wine reduction along with the bone broth and let marinate for 1 hour in the refrigerator. Alternatively, you can prepare this dish in advance by letting the ribs marinate for a full 24 hours-well worth it in our opinion.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• Remove the pot from the refrigerator, cover with a lid or aluminum foil, and transfer to the oven to braise for 2 1/2 hours.
• At the 2 hour mark, when 30 minutes remain on the cooking time for the short ribs, prepare the vegetables: On a baking sheet, toss the potatoes, carrots, and mushrooms with the ghee or oil and sea salt. Spread out in and even layer and roast in the oven for 20 to 25 minutes, until the potatoes and carrots are knife-tender.
• Remove the pot with the short ribs from the oven, uncover, and transfer the meat to a plate. Strain the braising liquid into a deep serving dish; discard the solids from the liquid. Add the roasted veggies to the serving dish and stir to distribute evenly. Using your hands or a fork, break the short ribs into chunks and stir in as well. Garnish with a little chopped fresh parsley and serve family style.
• The stew or any leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 1 week, or frozen for up to 6 months.

SHORT RIB STEW WITH VEGETABLES AND PORT

• Lower the heat to medium and add the onions, garlic, oregano and thyme; cook until fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the flour, stirring until completely combined. Add the beef broth and red wine, and return the seared short ribs to the pot. Bring to a simmer, partially cover, and cook until the meat begins to pull apart easily, 2 hours.
