Crispy Carrot Ribbons

House Salad

Method

Beef Short Ribs

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef

    Season the boneless beef short ribs with salt and black pepper. In a large Dutch oven, heat a bit of oil over medium-high heat and sear the short ribs on all sides until browned. Remove and set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same pot, add the chopped onions and carrots, and sauté until softened. Add garlic and cook for an additional minute.

  3. 3

    Braise the Ribs

    Return the short ribs to the pot, add red wine, beef broth, thyme, and bay leaf. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 2-3 hours until the beef is fork-tender.

Brown Butter Mashed Potatoes

  1. 4

    Cook the Potatoes

    Boil the cubed potatoes in salted water until fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and return to the pot.

  2. 5

    Make Brown Butter

    In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat until it turns golden brown. Be careful not to burn it.

  3. 6

    Mash and Season

    Add the brown butter and milk to the potatoes, mash until creamy, and season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Bordelaise Sauce

  1. 7

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat and sauté minced shallots until translucent. Add red wine and beef stock, bringing it to a simmer. Reduce until thickened, season with salt and pepper.

Crispy Carrot Ribbons

  1. 8

    Bake the Carrots

    Toss thinly sliced carrots with olive oil and salt. Spread them on a baking sheet and bake at 400°F (200°C) for about 15-20 minutes until crispy.

House Salad

  1. 9

    Assemble the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, and cucumber. Toss with your choice of dressing just before serving.
