Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Short Ribs

    Trim excess fat from the short ribs and cut them into smaller pieces if necessary.

  2. 2

    Chop the Vegetables

    Peel and chop the carrots and potatoes into bite-sized pieces. Dice the tomatoes, chop the onion, mince the garlic, and cut the zucchini into half-moons.

  3. 3

    Gather Ingredients

    Measure out all ingredients and have them ready for cooking.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Sear the Short Ribs

    In a large pot, heat a splash of oil over medium-high heat. Add the short ribs and sear them until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the ribs and set aside.

  2. 5

    Sauté the Aromatics

    In the same pot, add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

  3. 6

    Add Beef Broth and Ribs

    Return the short ribs to the pot and pour in the beef broth. Add the bay leaves, salt, black pepper, and cumin. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low.

  4. 7

    Simmer the Soup

    Cover the pot and let it simmer for about 1.5 hours, or until the short ribs are tender.

  5. 8

    Add Vegetables

    Once the ribs are tender, add the carrots, potatoes, corn, zucchini, and diced tomatoes to the pot. Stir well.

  6. 9

    Final Simmer

    Continue to simmer for another 30 minutes or until the vegetables are cooked through.

  7. 10

    Finish and Serve

    Remove bay leaves and stir in the chopped cilantro just before serving. Serve hot with lime on the side.
