Braised Short Ribs with Red Wine Demi-Glace
Tender, succulent short ribs cooked to perfection in a rich red wine demi-glace that will make your taste buds dance with joy!
Ingredients:
– 2 lbs beef short ribs
– 2 tbsp olive oil
– 1 onion, chopped
– 2 carrots, peeled and diced
– 2 celery stalks, diced
– 4 garlic cloves, minced
– 2 cups beef broth
– 1 cup red wine
– 2 tbsp tomato paste
– 1 tsp dried thyme
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Fresh parsley for garnish
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 325°F (165°C).
2. Season short ribs with salt and pepper. In a Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium-high heat and brown the short ribs on all sides. Remove and set aside.
3. In the same pot, add onion, carrots, celery, and garlic. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
4. Stir in tomato paste and cook for another minute. Pour in red wine, beef broth, and add thyme.
5. Return the short ribs to the pot, cover with a lid, and transfer to the preheated oven. Braise for 2.5 to 3 hours until the meat is fork-tender.
6. Remove the short ribs from the pot and strain the sauce into a saucepan. Skim off any excess fat.
7. Simmer the sauce over medium heat until reduced by half and thickened.
8. Serve the short ribs drizzled with the red wine demi-glace and garnish with fresh parsley.
