Thai Short Ribs Food

SLOW COOKER SWEET & SPICY THAI-STYLE RIBS

Steps:

• Sprinkle the ribs all over with salt and pepper. Brush the ribs with 1/2 cup of the Thai Style Sweet & Spicy Chili Cooking Sauce. Transfer to a 6- to 8-quart slow cooker insert. Cover and cook on low for 8 hours.
• Preheat the broiler and line a baking sheet with foil.
• Place each rib rack half, bone-side down, on the prepared baking sheet. Brush with the remaining cooking sauce. Broil until the glaze is bubbling and browned, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Slice the ribs between the bones. Transfer to a platter and sprinkle with cilantro and peanuts. Squeeze lime juice over the ribs.

BEEF SHORT RIBS SATAY (SATAY KRA-TOOG NGUA) RECIPE

Steps:

• In a mortar, combine the lemongrass, ginger, shallots, and garlic; pound to a semismooth paste. Stir in the oil, oyster sauce, fish sauce, turmeric, and the 1/3 cup coconut milk and mix well. Reserve 1/4 cup of this mixture and set aside. Transfer the rest to a large mixing bowl and add the short ribs. Toss the ribs to coat, cover the bowl, and let them marinate in the refrigerator for 24 hours (you can get away with marinating for 6 hours at a minimum, though the satay will have less depth of flavor).
• When it is time to cook the ribs, preheat your grill until very hot. I highly recommend cooking satay on an outdoor grill over charcoal briquettes, but gas will suffice (cook them indoors in a grill pan only if you have a very good exhaust system, since they generate a lot of smoke). Make the baste by mixing the reserved 1/4 cup marinade with the 1/3 cup coconut milk. Grill the ribs for about 2 minutes on each side (a little more or less, depending on how you like your meat). As they cook, brush the ribs with the basting liquid and a sprinkling of salt. Let the cooked ribs rest for 2 minutes before serving with the satay peanut sauce and cucumber ajat. Accompany with jasmine or sticky rice or slices of toasted white bread.

MARINATED THAI-STYLE PORK SPARERIBS

Steps:

• 1. Put the shallots, scallions, ginger, garlic, cilantro, soy sauce, fish sauce, salt, pepper, and sugar in the bowl of a food processor. Process to a loose, finely chopped paste, scraping down the sides of the bowl once or twice.
• 2. Place pork ribs in a large bowl or a pair of heavy resealable plastic bags. Thoroughly coat the ribs with the marinade, massaging the paste into the flesh for a minute or so. Cover and marinate at room temperature for 2 hours or up to 5 hours in the refrigerator, tossing the ribs once or twice during this time.
• 3. Preheat oven to 350°F. Spread the ribs out, bone-side down, on two large, parchment-lined baking sheets and bake until ribs are deeply colored and very tender but not yet falling from the bone, about 11/2 hours, occasionally rotating the pans to encourage even cooking. Remove from the oven and serve with small bowls of Thai Chile-Herb Dipping Sauce .

SWEET ASIAN SHORT RIBS

Steps:

• Place short ribs in the crock of a slow cooker; season with salt and pepper.
• Combine water, preserves, chili sauce, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, rice wine vinegar, honey, onion soup mix, red pepper flakes, onion powder, garlic powder, cinnamon, and ginger in a jar with a tight-fitting lid. Seal jar and shake until ingredients are well mixed; pour over the ribs, assuring all ribs are covered in sauce.
• Cook on Low until the meat is fork-tender, 6 to 9 hours (or on High for 3 to 6 hours).

THAI-STYLE SPARE RIBS

Steps:

• Lay the ribs flat in a roasting pan. (You will have 4 long pieces.) Season lightly with salt on both sides.
• Make the marinade: In a small bowl, combine honey, soy sauce, tamarind paste, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, red pepper, black pepper, cinnamon, nutmeg and cayenne. Add the wine and 1/4 cup hot water and whisk well.
• Pour marinade over ribs to completely coat. Marinate at room temperature for 2 hours, turning once or twice, or cover and refrigerate for several hours or overnight.
• Position a rack in the middle of the oven and heat to 250 degrees. Transfer the roasting pan, uncovered, to the rack. Roast ribs for 1 1/2 hours, basting with pan juices and turning ribs over every 20 minutes or so. If pan juices seem to be drying out or burning, add a little water to the pan. (Alternatively, cook ribs over indirect heat in a covered charcoal grill, turning ribs every 20 minutes or so.)
• Pour juices from the roasting pan into a small saucepan. Spoon off fat from surface of sauce, then simmer sauce for a few minutes until slightly thickened, then use the juices to paint the ribs.
• Turn up oven heat to 400 degrees. Return ribs to oven for 10 to 15 minutes, until nicely glazed. (Alternatively, return ribs to the grill to glaze.)
• Use a sharp knife to divide ribs, cutting between the bones. Pile ribs onto a platter, sprinkle with garlic chives and cilantro, and serve.

MASSAMAN CURRY SHORT RIBS

Steps:

• Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Heat for 2 minutes; add vegetable oil. Sear 3 to 4 ribs at a time in the hot oil until nicely browned, about 2 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining ribs. Remove ribs and set aside.
• Stir curry paste, ginger, and garlic into the hot pot, scraping up the beef fat and browned bits with a wooden spoon at the bottom of the pot, for about 2 minutes. Pour in coconut milk. Stir in turmeric, curry powder, cumin, chile powder, and garlic salt.
• Carefully place your short ribs back into the pot and stir in a folding motion so that the ribs are covered in the curry sauce.
• Close and lock the lid. Select Meat/Stew function according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 25 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
• Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, 10 to 40 minutes.

THAI SPICED SHORT RIBS

Steps:

• Combine oil, ginger, curry paste, allspice, salt and pepper in a small bowl to make a paste. Rub on ribs.
• Put ribs, cinnamon, onion & broth into a 4 1/2 quart or larger crockpot. Cover and cook until beef is tender, 6 to 7 hours on low or 3 1/2 to 4 hours on high. Skim excess fat from broth. Sprinkle with cilantro and serve.

THAI SHORT RIBS

Steps:

• preheat a broiler on high. Season ribs with salt and pepper and set bone side down on broiler tray. Spray with nonstick spray and broil until meaty parts are brown, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a slow cooker.
• Mix together the garlic, ginger, hoisin, vinegar, fish sauce, honey, soy sauce, and lime zest and juice in a bowl and pour over ribs. Cook until tender, about 3 to 4 hours on high, or 6 to 8 hours on low.
• Transfer the ribs to a platter. Skim fat from the liquid and discard. Add the jalapeno, scallions, and cilantro and cook on high 5 minutes. Spoon sauce over meat and serve.

ASIAN-STYLE BRAISED SHORT RIBS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a wide stockpot or Dutch oven, combine the short ribs, soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, lemongrass, ginger, brown sugar, water, green onion bottoms, crushed red pepper, and 2 tablespoons of the orange juice. Make sure that the stockpot is deep enough so that the short ribs are submerged in the liquid.
• Bake the short ribs, covered, for about 3 hours, or until the meat is tender and falling off the bones. Remove the short ribs from the braising liquid and cover to keep warm. Increase the oven temperature to 425 degrees F.
• Drain the fat off of the cooking liquid and discard. Place the remaining braising juices in a medium saucepan with 1/4 cup of the hoisin sauce and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the liquid until only about 1 1/4 cups remain. Strain through a fine-meshed strainer, discarding the solids. Stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons of orange juice and the lemon juice.
• Return the short ribs and the reduced sauce to the stockpot or Dutch oven, coating the short ribs well with the sauce. Bake for 10 minutes, until the short ribs are heated through and slightly glazed. Serve hot over jasmine rice. Season each portion with the orange zest and garnish with the green onions if desired.

THAI RIBS RECIPE

Steps:

• Chop up the ribs, being sure to leave on the fat (helps flavor the dish). Pack ribs into a 9 x 13-inch baking dish or pan.
• Combine marinade ingredients, stirring to dissolve sugar, and pour over the ribs. Turn to saturate all sides. Marinate at least 10 minutes while you warm up the oven (or up to 24 hours in the refrigerator, covered).
• Preheat oven to 325 F. The marinade should be 1/4- to 1/2-inch deep around the ribs. (If your baking pan is larger, you may need to add up to 1/4 cup water to achieve this.) Cover with lid or foil and bake 1 hour.
• Remove from oven. There should be at least 1/2 inch of sauce in the pan. While you have the dish out, turn over any ribs that look dry, ensuring most of the meaty parts are covered with sauce. Cover and return to oven for 1 more hour.
• While ribs are baking, combine Thai Sauce ingredients together in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to medium (it will smell rather pungent as the vinegar burns off). Boil 10 to 12 minutes, or until sauce has been reduced by 1/3 and has thickened.
• Remove from heat and add 1/2 tablespoon lime juice. Once it has cooled, do a taste-test: it should be tangy, with strong sweet, sour, and spicy tones, plus a little salty. Adjust the flavors by adding more sugar if you find it too sour, more cayenne if you'd like it spicier, or more fish sauce if you'd like it saltier. Add more lime juice if too sweet or salty. Note that it will taste strong now, but will be delicious when combined with the ribs.
• When ribs are cooked to your liking, transfer to a serving bowl or platter (bring some of the marinade with them). Now drizzle over the tangy Thai sauce and top with the green onion and coriander. Serve with jasmine rice and enjoy!

BEEF SHORT RIBS IN FRAGRANT THAI STOCK SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 150°C.
• Heat vegetable oil in a wok or frying pan over medium heat. Brown ribs for 3-4 minutes on each side.
• Remove ribs from pan.
• Add onion to pan and cook for 3 min or until soft and golden.
• Place onion, ribs, galangal, ginger, lemon grass, fish sauce, sugar, garlic, stock, tamarind and chillies in a very large ovenproof dish. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cover and bake in the oven for at least 2 hrs (and remove lid for last 10 min) or until ribs are very tender.
• To serve, sprinkle ribs with cilantro and basil and accompany with lime cheeks and rice.

THAI GREEN CURRY RIBS

Steps:

• Have the butcher cut the ribs across the bone in to 2 inch wide strips. Remove the membrane from the underside of the ribs and discard. Cut each two inch wide strip into three sections. Set aside.
• Combine the chicken broth, coconut milk and the fish sauce. Set aside.
• In a small skillet, heat the cloves, peppercorns, coriander seeds, caraway seeds and cumin seeds over medium heat until the spices just begin to smoke (about 1 minute).
• Using a spice grinder, pulverize the spices and set aside. In a food processor, add the garlic cloves, shallot and chiles and pulse a few times. Add the basil, cilantro and salt and pulse several more times. Add the ground spices and pulse several more times. Through the feed tube, pour the vegetable oil with the machine on so that a paste can be formed. Place into a small bowl and set aside.
• In a large dutch oven, heat the 1/4 cup vegetable oil over medium-high heat. When the oil starts to smoke a little, add the ribs and fry until they are lightly browned (about 5 minutes). Don't forget to have your kitchen fan turned on high. Remove the ribs and drain the cooking oil. Add the ribs back to the pot and pour in the curry paste. Stirfry the ribs and curry paste over medium heat for 30 seconds.
• Add the coconut milk mixture and bring to a low boil. Cover and reduce heat to low/simmer. Cook the ribs until the meat is tender (about 1 hour). Stir the pot every 15 minutes.
• Temporarily remove the ribs from the pot. Using paper towels, remove the oil floating on the surface of the sauce and discard. Return the ribs to the sauce and simmer for 5 minutes to heat them again. If you are not planning on serving the dish within the hour, cool completely, refrigerate covered for no more than 24 hours and then reheat when ready to serve.
• Mix the cornstarch with equal amount of cold water until smooth. Stir into sauce until sauce is slightly thickened. You can keep the ribs warm for up to one hour on simmer/low heat before serving. Serve over cooked rice.

THAI PORK RIBS (SII KHRONG MUU TAI NAAM)

Steps:

• Paste: Prepare ingredients to make the paste. Peel and thinly slice galangal and turmeric; thinly slice cilantro roots. Trim lemongrass stems, then discard tough outer layers; slice into thin coins. Slice chiles into ½-inch pieces. Peel garlic cloves, then roughly chop.
• Place the mortar and pestle on a towel to keep it sturdy. Chef Ricker advises adding ingredients from hardest to softest texture when making a paste. Place dried chiles into the mortar along with a pinch of salt; pound until chiles are flaky. Add peppercorns and continue pounding, followed by galangal, turmeric, and cilantro root. As the ingredients are added, a rough paste will begin to form. Continue by adding lemongrass, garlic, and green chiles. When all of the ingredients have broken down to a rough pulp, the paste is ready. Makes about ⅓ cup.
• Ribs: Place rack meat-side down on a cutting board. Cut into individual ribs and place in a bowl. Stack lime leaves, roll like a cigar, slice very thinly (this is called a chiffonade), and set aside. Season ribs with a pinch of salt, fish sauce, sugar, and MSG (optional); toss to coat with your hands. Add the paste and 1 teaspoon sliced lime leaf, reserving the rest for garnish, and massage the ingredients into the ribs until they're evenly coated. Let rest uncovered at room temperature, 1 hour.
• Add oil to a pot over medium-high heat; when it's smoking, add ribs meat-side down in an even layer. Turn heat to medium-low (to prevent paste from burning) and brown the ribs, 6-8 minutes.
• While ribs are browning, add 5 pounds ice cubes to the bowl, along with enough water to cover the ice. When ribs are browned, turn them over and reduce heat to low. Place the bowl with ice slurry on the pot so it completely seals off the top. The steam will rise and condense on the cold surface of the bowl, then drip back onto the ribs, creating a self-basting cooking environment.
• Garnish: While ribs are cooking, trim and thinly slice the scallion. Roughly chop cilantro. Fold sawtooth leaves in half and julienne into ⅛-inch slices. Mix together scallion, cilantro, and sawtooth and set aside, along with remaining lime leaf.
• After 15 minutes, remove bowl from pot and turn the ribs over. Pour out melted ice slurry and replenish with another 5 lbs ice cubes and water. Add a pinch of salt to the ice water to keep it cold a little longer. Place bowl over pot and continue cooking, 15 more minutes.
• After 30 minutes of total cooking, remove the bowl. Continue cooking ribs uncovered to reduce the cooking liquid in the pot, 5 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning by adding salt, sugar, and fish sauce; remove from heat. Place ribs on a serving platter, and spoon paste from the pot over them. Garnish with chopped herbs (scallions, cilantro, sawtooth) and lime leaves. Serve.
