Ingredients

750 mL prepared LUDA H Brown Gravy Mix, Gluten-Free, Sodium Reduced (75 g dry mix + 187 mL cold water + 563 mL boiling water) Brown Cooking Gravy, Gluten-Free, Sodium Reduced
2 kg of beef short ribs, bone-in
30 mL (2 Tbsp) olive oil
2 large onions, roughly chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
3 medium carrots, peeled and cut into chunks
3 stalks celery, cut into chunks
250 mL (1 cup) of dry red wine
15 mL (1 Tbsp) of tomato paste
5 mL (1 tsp) of dried thyme
5 mL (1 tsp) of dried rosemary
Black pepper to taste
Fresh chives for garnish

Preparation

Preheat oven to 160°C (325°F). Season short ribs with black pepper
In a large Dutch oven, heat olive oil over high heat. Sear short ribs on all sides until deeply browned, about 3–4 minutes per side. Remove and set aside. Reduce heat to medium
Sauté onions, garlic, carrots and celery in the same pot for 5 minutes until softened
Add tomato paste and cook 1 minute. Deglaze with red wine, scraping up any browned bits. Simmer for 3 minutes
Prepare LUDA H Brown Gravy Mix by whisking 75 g of dry mix into 187 mL of cold water until smooth. Add to 563 mL of boiling water in the pot, stirring with a whisk
Bring back to a boil, then reduce to a simmer for 3 minutes. Return short ribs to the pot. Add thyme and rosemary
The ribs should be mostly submerged — add a splash of water if needed
Cover and braise in the oven for 2.5–3 hours until meat is fork-tender and falling off the bone. Skim any excess fat from the surface
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve over mashed potatoes
