Ingredients

  • 800 g Beef Slow Cook Short Ribs
  • 1.0 kg potatoes
  • 300 g frozen peas
  • 2 each onion
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 500 ml beef stock
  • 2 tbsp plain flour
  • 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • 100 g butter
  • 100 ml milk
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 160°C.
  2. Pat the beef short ribs dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and pepper.
  3. In a large oven-safe pot, heat a splash of oil over medium-high heat. Sear the ribs on all sides until browned, about 8 minutes. Remove and set aside.
  4. In the same pot, reduce the heat to medium and add the diced onion and minced garlic. Sauté until softened.
  5. Stir in the plain flour and cook for 1-2 minutes.
  6. Slowly whisk in the beef stock, Worcestershire sauce, and tomato paste. Bring to a simmer and season with salt and pepper.
  7. Return the seared ribs to the pot, ensuring they're mostly submerged in the liquid. Cover the pot with a lid or foil and transfer to the oven.
  8. Cook for 3.5-4 hours, or until the ribs are tender and the meat falls off the bone.
  9. About 30 minutes before the ribs are done, peel and chop the potatoes into even chunks. Boil them in salted water until soft, about 20 minutes.
  10. Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add butter and milk, then mash until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  11. Cook the frozen peas in boiling water for 4-5 minutes, then drain and toss with a little butter.
  12. Serve the slow-cooked beef ribs with the rich gravy over the mashed potatoes and peas. Enjoy!
