Рецепт In Short of It
I love trying different cuts of meat. Two of my
favorites now are oxtail and beef short ribs
I find both much cheaper and easier to find in
Asian food markets. I was lucky to score a large package of short ribs for four
dollars on the weekend. When cheap cuts of beef on the bone are braised for
hours in the oven submerged in liquid the result is fall off the bone melt in
your mouth meat.
St. Patrick’s Day fare is often hearty fare like
braised meats and potatoes paired with dark ales and stouts. Perfect for the
blustery March weather.
This dish is now one of my favorites and combines all
the above components for a wonderful St. Patrick’s Day meal.
