Gingered Short Ribs With Green Rice Recipes

Steps:

• Heat a large Dutch oven and arrange carrots and leeks on the bottom. Season ribs all over with salt and pepper and place over vegetables. In a medium bowl, whisk together broth, sherry, soy sauce, honey, vinegar, ginger, and garlic. Pour mixture over ribs. Cover and braise for 3 to 4 hours. This can also be done in a slow cooker - just cook on low for 8 hours or high for 4 hours.
• Cook rice according to package directions.
• While still hot, stir in cilantro, scallions, jalapenos, and lime zest. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Serve half of the rice with the ribs (and carrots and leeks) and reserve extra rice for another meal.

Steps:

• For the orange-ginger glaze: Combine the juice, sugar, tamari, peppercorns, ground pepper, salt, anise and ginger in a saucepan. Cook over high heat, stirring occasionally, until reduced by half. Strain and cool.
• For the grilled boneless short ribs: Toss the ribs with 1/2 cup of the glaze, reserving the remaining glaze. Set aside the ribs at room temperature for 30 minutes. Prepare the grill for direct grilling at medium-high heat. Remove the ribs from the glaze, shaking off the excess. Brush the ribs with the oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill the ribs until nicely charred and still pink in the middle, about 3 minutes each side. Brush the ribs occasionally with the reserved glaze.
• For the green onion-peanut relish: Combine the peanuts, onions, sugar, allspice, cinnamon and sprinkle lightly with salt. Transfer the ribs to a platter and top with the green onion-peanut relish.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 325 degrees. In a saucepan, boil the wine over high heat until reduced to 1/2 cup.
• Generously sprinkle the ribs on all sides with salt and transfer to a large roasting pan, bone side up. Scatter the garlic, mushrooms, carrots, onions, celery, ginger, allspice, cinnamon, konbu and thyme on the ribs. Mix 6 cups of the stock and vinegar with the reduced wine and add to the ribs. The liquid should come about 2/3 of the way up the sides of the meat. Add more stock if needed.
• Cover the pan tightly with layers of foil. Transfer to the oven and cook until the meat is very tender, 3 1/2 to 4 hours.
• Remove from the oven and carefully remove the foil. When the ribs are cool enough to handle, transfer them to a dish. Remove and discard the bones and any bits of vegetables and spice.
• Strain the liquid in the pan through a sieve and discard the solids. Let the liquid settle, then spoon off the fat or use a fat separator. You should have about a quart of liquid. (At this point, you can refrigerate the meat and sauce, separately, for up to three days.)
• To finish the dish, heat the oven to 375 degrees. Put the strained liquid back in the roasting pan and bring to a boil on the stove. Add the meat in a single layer. Transfer to the oven and baste frequently with the liquid, until shiny and thick but not sticky, and until the ribs are well glazed, 10 to 20 minutes. Serve the ribs with extra sauce.

Steps:

• Heat vegetable oil in large wide shallow pot over medium-high heat. Working in batches, add ribs and brown on all sides, about 8 minutes. Transfer ribs to large bowl. Add garlic and ginger to pot; sauté 30 seconds. Add brown sugar, vinegar, and soy sauce. Stir to blend. Return ribs to pot. Cover pot and simmer over medium-low heat until meat is tender, turning ribs occasionally, about 45 minutes. If sauce is thin, gradually add cornstarch mixture to ribs and simmer until sauce thickens slightly, about 2 minutes. Serve ribs over rice.

Steps:

• Peel ginger and cut into matchsticks 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick and 2 to3 inches long (you should have 1 1/3 cups).
• Rinse ribs, drain, and lay in a single layer in a 12-by 16-inch casserole at least 2 inches deep.
• Evenly distribute ginger, onions, and pineapple over and around meat.
• Mix 1 cup water with 1/3 cup soy sauce and add to casserole, cover tightly with foil.
• Bake in a 375 degree oven until meat is tender when pierced, 2 3/4 to 3 hours; halfway through baking, turn ribs in sauce and if necessary, add water to bring liquid level up to 3/4 inch.
• Uncover ribs and bake until browned, about, 10 minutes.
• Skim fat from juices and discard.
• Scatter sliced mint over meat; garnish with mint sprigs.
• Add more soy sauce to taste.
