Braised Short Ribs
By: Rosemary Scoleri
Paisiano's Restaurant
Ingredients:
6 tablespoons extra
virgin olive oil
2 pounds boneless
Beef Short Ribs, cut
into 3 inch cubes
2 large Spanish onions
cut into ½ dice
1 medium carrot, sliced
into ½ inch thick rounds
2 ribs celery, cut into
½ inch thick slices
8 ounces Portobello
mushrooms,
1/8 inch thick slices
4 ounces, Pancetta,
cut into ¼ inch dice
2 cups Barolo or other
hearty red wine
In a large Dutch oven, heat the olive
oil over high heat until smoking.
Season the meat liberally with salt
and pepper. Working in batches to
avoid overcrowding the pot, brown
the meat all over, turning frequently,
until dark golden brown, 10-12 min-
utes per batch. Transfer to a platter
and set aside.
Pour the excess oil out of the pot.
Add the onions, carrots, celery,
mushrooms and pancetta and cook
until the vegetables are light brown
and starting to soften, about 8 min-
utes. Add the wine and tomato
sauce and bring to a boil.
Add the meat and bring back to a
boil, then lower the heat to a gentle
simmer. Place the herb bouquet on
top of the meat and vegetable mix-
ture. Cook until the meat is tender
about 2 hours.
Remove herb bouquet. Transfer the
meat to a large platter. Bring the
cooking liquid to a boil and reduce
to 2 ½ cups. Season with salt and
pepper, pour over meat. Serve over
noodles or rice.
Buon Appetito!
