Beef Short Ribs Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Beef Short Ribs

   Season the beef short ribs with salt and black pepper. Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sear the ribs on all sides until browned, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.

2. 2

   Cook the Aromatics

   In the same pot, add the chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.

3. 3

   Add the Liquids

   Return the short ribs to the pot. Add the beef broth, canned tomatoes, and mole sauce. Bring to a simmer.

4. 4

   Braise the Ribs

   Cover the pot and reduce the heat to low. Cook for about 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the meat is tender and falling off the bone.

5. 5

   Roast the Sweet Potatoes

   Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss the cubed sweet potatoes with melted butter, salt, and pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes, until tender.

6. 6

   Make the Esquites

   In a skillet, cook the corn over medium heat until slightly charred. Remove from heat and mix with mayonnaise, lime juice, and chopped cilantro.

7. 7

   Serve

   Serve the beef short ribs with roasted sweet potatoes and esquites on the side.
