Succulent Beef Short Ribs
Cooking time with pressure: 40 minutes
Serves 2
Cooking Instructions
1. Heat the olive oil in the pressure cooker pan and brown the meat well on all sides, then remove to
a plate. Add the garlic and red onion, fry for 2-3 minutes with the caster sugar. Return the ribs to
the pan and add the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sherry, cinnamon stick and stock to cover the ribs.
2. Bring to a simmer, cover and bring up to pressure. Cook for 40 minutes, then release the pressure
naturally. Take the lid off, and remove the ribs from the pan and keep it warm. Simmer the sauce down
until reduced and intensely flavoured.
3. Use a large dinner plate, place each rib with warm rice on the side. Pour the sauce over the rib
and top with a sprinkle of chopped parsley.
Ingredients
Olive oil for browning the meat
2 thick cut meaty beef short ribs
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1 red onion, finely chopped
½ tbsp. golden caster sugar
½ tbsp. soy sauce
25ml oyster sauce
2 tbsp of sherry
600ml of beef or chicken stock
1 cinnamon stick
Chopped flat leaf parsley, to garnish
Cooked basmati rice, to serve
Please Note
Pressure cookers are great when it comes to braising, stewing and transforming tough cuts of meat
to tender and succulent dishes. It uses a wet cooking method, so be prepared to simmer sauces
down to intensify the flavour once the pressure cooker lid has been removed at the end of cooking.
