Braised Shortrib Stout And Potato Potpies Recipes

STOUT-BRAISED SHORT RIBS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Heat 3 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large Dutch oven or pot over high heat. Sprinkle the short ribs generously with salt and pepper on all sides and sear in batches if needed until brown, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Remove the meat from the pot to a large bowl and set aside.
• Add another 1 tablespoon of oil to the pot if needed. Add the onions and garlic to the pot and cook until lightly browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot using a wooden spoon. Add the carrots and celery and let cook for another minute or 2.
• Add the Irish stout to the pot and scrape up the bottom of the pot to remove any more browned bits. Bring to a simmer, then add the beef stock and season with salt and pepper. Return the meat, along with any juices, to the pot. Bring the stew to a simmer and cook uncovered for 20 minutes. Cover and braise in the oven until the short ribs are tender and can be shredded easily with a fork, about 2 hours.
• Serve on top of mashed potatoes if desired.

Steps:

• Make the filling: Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Season short ribs with salt and pepper. Dredge short ribs in flour, coating all sides. Transfer to a large plate. Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over high heat. Working in batches, brown short ribs, about 1 minute per side. Transfer to a large plate using kitchen tongs.

• Remove Dutch oven from oven, and add cipollini onions. Braise until meat is tender and onions are cooked through, about 30 minutes. Shred meat using 2 forks. Season with salt and pepper. Divide filling among eight mini (1-cup) pie plates, or transfer to a 12-inch (8-cup) gratin dish.
• Make the topping: Raise oven temperature to 375 degrees. Peel potatoes, and very thinly slice each (preferably on a mandoline). Arrange potatoes over meat to form tight concentric circles, working around the edge and overlapping each potato by three-quarters. Brush with oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake until topping is golden and filling is bubbling, about 45 minutes for mini potpies (1 hour for large potpie).

STOUT-BRAISED SHORT RIBS WITH HORSERADISH & CARROTS

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 2. Heat the oil in a casserole dish and brown the short ribs well on all sides - this will take about 10 mins. Remove the ribs to a plate, then fry the onion and celery in the dish for 5 mins. Stir in the herbs and flour, and cook for a few minutes, then stir in the sugar, stout and stock, and bring to a simmer. Add the horseradish cream and some seasoning, then nestle the ribs into the sauce. Cover the pan and cook in the oven for 1 hr.
• Peel the carrots, keeping them whole. Remove the stew from the oven, stir gently and add the carrots. Cover and return to the oven for 2 hrs more until the ribs are tender. You can now serve the stew in a rustic style, as is. Alternatively, gently remove the ribs and carrots to a board. Strain the sauce through a sieve into a saucepan and bring to the boil, skimming off any froth that rises to the surface. Simmer for 5 mins until reduced by a third. Tip the reduced sauce back into the casserole dish, add back the ribs and carrots, and simmer for a few minutes to reheat the meat. Divide between plates and serve.
