BRAISED SHORT RIBS


Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
4˝ lbs (2.25 kg) beef short ribs, cut into pieces consisting of 2 ribs each
Salt and pepper to taste
2 tbsp (30 mL) olive oil
2 cups (500 mL) onions, coarsely chopped
1 cup (250 mL) celery, coarsely chopped
2 tbsp (30 mL) garlic, coarsely chopped
2 tbsp (30 mL) fresh thyme, coarsely chopped
2 tbsp (30 mL) tomato paste
1 cup (250 mL) dark ale (I use Guinness)
2 cups (500 mL) beef stock
2 tsp (10 mL) cornstarch
3 tbsp (45 mL) water

Directions:
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Season ribs generously with salt and pepper. In a large ovenproof pot or Dutch oven, heat oil over medium-high heat, browning ribs on all sides, in batches so as not to overcrowd the pot.
2. Set browned meat aside and discard all but 1 tbsp (15 mL) oil from pot. Add onions, celery, garlic and thyme. Sauté over medium heat until all are tender, about 10 minutes. Add tomato paste and cook for 1 minute. Add ale, beef stock and short ribs to pot. Cover and bring just to the boil. Cook in covered pot in oven for 2 hours.
3. Once ribs are cooked remove from the pot, pour cooking liquid through a sieve into a small saucepan to have 1˝ cups (375 mL) of cooking liquid in the saucepan. Discard solids.
4. In a small bowl, stir together cornstarch and water until starch has dissolved, then add to the cooking liquid. Cook over medium-high heat until liquid has thickened slightly, about 2 minutes. Pour sauce overtop ribs and Barley & Porcini Mushroom Stew (recipe follows).
