Technique to learn

Braising

Searing meat at high temperature followed by slow cooking covered in liquid.

Instructions

Step 1: Season halal beef short ribs with salt and black pepper on all sides.
Step 2: Heat vegetable oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat and sear the short ribs for 3 minutes per side until deeply browned; transfer to a plate.

Step 3: Add chopped onion and minced garlic to the Dutch oven, cooking for 4 minutes until soft and fragrant.

Step 4: Stir in blackstrap molasses, apple vinegar, and halal beef broth, scraping up browned bits stuck to the bottom of the pot.

Step 5: Return short ribs to the pot, cover with a lid, lower heat, and simmer gently for 75 to 80 minutes until meat is tender.

Step 6: Heat drained yellow hominy in a saucepan with butter and a pinch of salt over medium heat for 5 minutes until warm.

Step 7: Serve the tender beef short ribs and rich molasses gravy over the warm buttered hominy.

Cooking tips

Simmering gently on low heat prevents short ribs from drying out while breaking down collagen.
apple vinegar balances the sweetness of blackstrap molasses in the gravy.
