Slow braised beef short ribs in rich gravy delightfully melt in your mouth!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 kg beef short ribs
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 cup crushed tomatoes
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Season the beef ribs generously with salt, pepper, and paprika. Heat olive oil in a heavy pot over medium-high heat and sear the ribs until deeply browned on all sides. Remove and set aside.
  2. In the same pot, melt butter and sauté the onion until soft and golden. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, then stir in tomato paste for a rich depth.
  3. Pour in beef broth and crushed tomatoes, then add soy sauce, thyme, rosemary, and chili flakes. Stir well and bring to a gentle simmer.
  4. Return the ribs to the pot, cover, and cook on low heat for 2 to 2.5 hours until the meat becomes incredibly tender and infused with flavor.
  5. Spoon the thick, glossy sauce over the ribs and sprinkle fresh parsley on top before serving.

Notes

  • Cook low and slow for the most tender texture.
  • Let the ribs rest in the sauce before serving to absorb maximum flavor.
  • Trim excess fat before cooking and serve with steamed vegetables for a more balanced meal.
  • For a vegan version, replace beef with large mushrooms or jackfruit and use vegetable broth.
