Short Rib and Vegetable Stew

This slow-cooked beef short rib and vegetable stew is a deeply nourishing, high-protein meal that draws inspiration from traditional Korean flavours. By soaking the ribs and slowly simmering them, the beef reaches a melt-in-the-mouth tenderness while the broth develops a complex, savoury profile. The addition of earthy Chinese black mushrooms, sweet carrots and a hint of Korean red pepper paste creates a beautifully balanced dish that is both comforting and sophisticated.

Perfect for a weekend kitchen project, this recipe benefits from being prepared in stages to ensure a lean, flavourful finish. The combination of root vegetables and protein-rich beef makes it a wholesome option for a family dinner. Serve it alongside a mix of nutty brown rice and barley to soak up the aromatic sauce and provide a satisfying, healthy crunch.

Ingredients for Short Rib and Vegetable Stew

  • 2.7kg beef short ribs (with bone

  • preferably cut into 2-inch pieces by butcher)

  • 1925ml cold water plus 950ml hot water

  • 12 large dried Chinese black mushrooms

  • 450g de papas para hervir

  • 1 (3/4-pound) Korean radish or daikon, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks

  • 4 large carrots, sliced 1/2 inch thick

  • 12 garlic cloves, smashed

  • 120ml dried red dates (optional)

  • 120ml soy sauce

  • 2 tablespoons Asian fish sauce

  • 2 tablespoons molasses (not robust or blackstrap)

  • 1 tablespoon Korean hot red-pepper paste plus additional for serving

  • 1 large onion, cut into 1-inch wedges

  • 1 bunch spring onions, cut into 2-inch pieces

  • 45ml Asian sesame oil

  • Accompaniment: brown rice and barley

Cover short ribs with cold water and soak, chilled, at least 2 hours.

Drain ribs and transfer to an 8-to 10-quart heavy pot with cold water (1925ml ). Simmer ribs, partially covered, skimming any foam, 2 hours. Chill ribs in liquid (covered once cool) until fat solidifies, about 4 hours.

Meanwhile, soak mushrooms in hot water (950ml ), turning occasionally, until softened, about 1 hour. Squeeze excess liquid from mushrooms and reserve 475ml soaking liquid; cut off and discard mushroom stems, then halve caps.

Discard fat from ribs and return to a simmer. Peel potatoes and cut into 1-inch pieces, then add to ribs with radish, carrots, garlic, dates (if using), soy sauce, fish sauce, molasses, red-pepper paste, mushrooms, reserved mushroom-soaking liquid, and water (if necessary) to barely cover meat and vegetables with liquid. Simmer, partially covered, stirring occasionally, 30 minutes.

Stir in onion and spring onions and simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, until meat is very tender and vegetables are tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Skim off any fat, then stir in sesame oil. Stir before serving and serve additional red-pepper paste on the side.
