Braised Short Ribs With Red Wine Sauce


Although this may seem like a lengthy process, all of the work is done in advance. The end result is delicious comfort food. I serve garlic mashed potatoes and whatever vege is fresh at the time.

Steps


Preheat oven to 500^f.
Line a large baking sheet with foil.
Generously season ribs and arrange in a single layer on baking sheet.
Roast until brown , about 25 minutes.
Reduce temperature to 325^f.
Place ribs in a large heavy oven-proof pot.
Add tomatoes with juice , and next 8 ingredients.
Add wine and enough water to cover.
Tightly cover pot and cook in oven until meat is very tender , about 2 hours and 40 minutes.
Cool and refrigerate overnight.
Remove any fat from surface and transfer ribs to a 13x9x2 inch baking pan.
Strain liquid and return ot pot.
Boil until liquid has reduced to 1 cup , skimming any foam that appears , about 50 minutes.
Season to taste.
Preheat oven to 325^f.
Pour sauce over ribs.
Cover pan with foil and bake until ribs are heated through , about 25 minutes.
