Hungarian Braised Short Ribs
- 10 whole Beef Short Ribs (about 5 Pounds -- Meaty And Generally Uniform In Size)
- 2 Tablespoons Kosher Salt
- 1 Tablespoon Worcestershire Pepper Blend (or Plain Black Pepper -- See The Note Below)
- 3 Tablespoons Canola Oil
- 1/2 cups Red Wine (slightly Sweet)
- 3- 1/4 cups Beef Stock
- 1 cup Water
- 2 whole Large Shallots, Diced
- 1 can (10.75 Oz. Can) Tomato Puree
- 1 teaspoon Dry Thyme
- 2 whole Bay Leaves
- 6 Tablespoons Sweet Paprika (the Real Deal)
- 2 Tablespoons Tomato Paste
- Preheat your oven to 325 degrees .
- Put the ribs on a sheet pan and season all sides liberally with the salt and pepper.
- Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat.
- Add half of the ribs to the pot and brown them nicely on all sides (2-4 minutes per side).
- Move the browned ribs to a sheet pan and repeat with the remainder.
- Add the wine to the empty pot and stir to deglaze the brown bits on the bottom.
- Add the stock, water, shallots, tomato puree, thyme and bay leaves.
- Bring the liquid to a simmer.
- While the liquid is coming to a simmer, coat all sides of the ribs with paprika and smear it around to form a paste-like coating.
- Note: if you cant find the Worcestershire pepper, just coat the ribs with a little Worcestershire sauce before adding the paprika.
- Add the ribs to the liquid and arrange them so that they are in a single layer.
- Cover, move to the oven, and cook for 2 1/2 hours.
- Remove from the oven to the stovetop at medium heat.
- Add the tomato paste and stir the liquid gently to dissolve and distribute it.
- Cook, uncovered until the meat is fork tender.
- Serve the ribs and sauce over egg noodles.
- Enjoy!
