Short Ribs

Caramelized Onions

Method

Braised Short Ribs

  1. 1

    Prepare the short ribs

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Season the beef short ribs with salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Sear the ribs

    In a large oven-safe pot, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the short ribs and sear on all sides until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove from the pot and set aside.

  3. 3

    Sauté onions and garlic

    In the same pot, add the chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add minced garlic and sauté for another minute.

  4. 4

    Deglaze the pot

    Pour in the red wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes.

  5. 5

    Add broth and herbs

    Stir in the beef broth, thyme, and bay leaves. Bring the mixture to a boil.

  6. 6

    Braise the ribs

    Return the short ribs to the pot, cover, and transfer to the oven. Braise for 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the meat is tender and falling off the bone.

Caramelized Onions

  1. 7

    Cook the onions

    In a large skillet, melt the butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions, salt, and sugar. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are deep golden brown, about 30-40 minutes.

Horseradish Crema

  1. 8

    Mix the crema

    In a bowl, combine sour cream, prepared horseradish, lemon juice, and salt. Mix well and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Assembly

  1. 9

    Serve the dish

    Once the short ribs are done, remove from the oven and serve on a plate. Top with caramelized onions, slices of fresh mozzarella, and a drizzle of horseradish crema. Garnish with chopped parsley.
