Method

Beef Short Ribs

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ribs

    Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Season the beef short ribs evenly with salt and black pepper on all sides.

  2. 2

    Sear the Ribs

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

  3. 3

    Sauté Vegetables

    In the same pot, add chopped onion, minced garlic, and chopped carrot. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the onion is translucent.

  4. 4

    Add Liquids and Spices

    Pour in the beef broth and soy sauce, scraping the bottom of the pot to release any browned bits. Stir in the brown sugar, rice wine vinegar, star anise, and sliced ginger.

  5. 5

    Braise the Ribs

    Return the seared short ribs to the pot. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then cover the pot and transfer it to the preheated oven. Cook for 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the meat is tender and falling off the bone.

Rice

  1. 6

    Cook the Rice

    While the ribs are braising, rinse the jasmine rice under cold running water until the water runs clear. In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice, water, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.

  2. 7

    Simmer the Rice

    Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer for 15 minutes or until the rice is tender and the water has been absorbed. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for 5 minutes.
