Ingredients :
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground coriander
Dash crushed red pepper flakes
8 bone-in beef short ribs (about 4
pounds)
2 tablespoons safflower oil
1 medium onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1-1/2 cups chicken or beef stock
1-1/2 cups dry red wine or pomegranate
juice
3 tablespoons soy sauce, optional
1/3 cup pomegranate molasses
Minced fresh parsley and pomegranate
seeds
How To Make Pomegranate Short Ribs :
- Combine the first 5 ingredients; rub
over ribs. Refrigerate, covered, at least 2 hours. In a large skillet, heat oil
over medium heat. Brown ribs on all sides in batches. Transfer to a 5-qt. slow
cooker. Discard drippings, reserving 2 tablespoons. Add onion to drippings;
cook and stir over medium-high heat until tender, 8-10 minutes. Add garlic and
tomato paste; cook 1 minute longer.
- Add wine to pan; increase heat to
medium-high. Cook 10 minutes until slightly thickened; stirring to loosen
browned bits from pan. Transfer to slow cooker. Add stock, molasses and if
desired, soy sauce, making sure ribs are fully submerged in liquid. Cook,
covered, on low until ribs are tender, 6-8 hours. Serve ribs with parsley and
pomegranate seeds.
