Short Ribs

Side Dishes

Method

Preparing the Short Ribs

  1. 1

    Season the Ribs

    Start by seasoning the beef short ribs with salt and black pepper on all sides. Let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Sear the Ribs

    In a large heavy pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the short ribs and sear them for 3-4 minutes on each side until browned. Remove the ribs and set aside.

  3. 3

    Sauté Aromatics

    In the same pot, add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté for about 2-3 minutes until the onion is translucent.

  4. 4

    Deglaze with Wine

    Pour in the red wine, scraping the bottom of the pot to release any browned bits. Allow the wine to reduce for about 5 minutes.

  5. 5

    Add Broth and Herbs

    Add the beef broth, fresh thyme, and bay leaves into the pot. Stir to combine.

  6. 6

    Return Ribs and Simmer

    Return the seared short ribs to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and let simmer for 2.5 to 3 hours until the ribs are tender.

Preparing the Side Dishes

  1. 7

    Make the Mashed Potatoes

    While the ribs are cooking, prepare the mashed potatoes. Boil the potatoes in salted water until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and return to the pot.

  2. 8

    Mash and Season

    Add butter, milk, salt, and pepper to the drained potatoes. Mash until creamy and smooth. Keep warm until serving.

  3. 9

    Prepare the Vegetables

    In a separate pot, steam or sauté the mixed vegetables until they are tender, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
