Instructions

Make the Red Wine Short Rib:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  • In a medium dutch oven (or oven-safe pot), heat your olive oil over medium-high heat.
  • While the oil is heating, season all sides of your short ribs with the pepper and 1 tsp of the salt salt. Next, add your flour to a shallow bowl or large plate then coat each short rib in the flour, shaking off any excess.
  • In batches, as to not overcrowd the pan, brown the short ribs on all sides until golden brown, about 2 min per side. Transfer browned short ribs to plate and continue until all are browned. Set aside.
  • In the same pot, add the diced pancetta and cook, tossing occasionally, until it begins to crisp. About 2 minutes.
  • Next, add the onion, carrot, celery, garlic and 1 tsp of salt and a pinch of pepper. Saute until tender, about 3 minutes.
  • Add the cayenne, smoked paprika, dijon and tomato paste to the veggie mixture, stir to combine.
  • Next, add the red wine and beef broth and stir to combine. Nestle your short ribs back into the sauce and bring it to a simmer.
  • Bundle your rosemary and thyme with the kitchen twine then and add that and the bay leaf into the pot.
  • Place the top on your dutch oven then into your preheated oven until the short ribs are fall-apart tender, about 2 hours.

Make the Parsnip Puree:

  • When there is about 25 minutes left on the short rib, start the parsnip puree.
  • In a large pot or dutch oven, add the vegetable broth and bring to a boil. Once boiling, add the parsnips, potato, garlic and salt and reduce to a simmer.
  • Cover and cook until the parsnips are fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes.
  • Once tender, add the coconut milk, pepper and any additional salt to taste, then mash.
  • Serve the short rib over the mash and enjoy!
