Tender beef short ribs braised in red wine until they are melt-in-your-mouth delicious, served with creamy mashed potatoes. This hearty and comforting dish is perfect for a cozy dinner at home.

Ingredients:

• 4 beef short ribs
• 2 cups red wine
• 1 onion, chopped
• 2 carrots, chopped
• 2 celery stalks, chopped
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 cups beef broth
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 2 sprigs fresh thyme
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 4 large potatoes, peeled and cubed
• 1/2 cup milk
• 4 tablespoons butter
• Chopped parsley for garnish

Instructions:

Warm the oven up to 175F 350C

Add salt and pepper to the short ribs

Heat some oil over medium-high heat in a large pot that can go in the oven

After browning the short ribs on all sides, take them out of the pot and set them aside

The onion, carrots, celery, and garlic should all be put in the same pot

About 5 minutes of cooking will soften the food

Add the tomato paste and cook for two more minutes

Fill the pot with red wine and beef broth

Scrape the bottom of the pot to get rid of any browned bits

Put the short ribs and thyme sprigs back in the pot

Bring to a low boil

Place the pot in an oven that has already been heated and cover it

Let the meat cook for two to three hours, or until it is soft and falls off the bone

Meanwhile, boil the potatoes in salted water for about 15 to 20 minutes, or until they are soft enough to pierce with a fork

Put the potatoes in a bowl and mash them with butter, milk, salt, and pepper until they are smooth and creamy

Take the short ribs out of the pot when they're done and strain the sauce through a cheesecloth

Get rid of any extra fat

Pour the red wine sauce over the mashed potatoes and serve the short ribs

Add chopped parsley as a garnish

Enjoy your short ribs cooked in red wine with mashed potatoes!
