【Snowflake Beef Short Ribs with Red Wine Cream Sauce】
Overview
March 14th is White Day in the West. It is said that this day is the day when girls return love gifts to boys. Carrot and I are an old couple, and we are not romantic people, so we might as well make him a delicious meal. So the beef chosen this time is grain-fed Angus beef short ribs imported from Australia. For this kind of steak, the fat of the beef is evenly distributed and the snowflake texture is very beautiful. After frying, the gravy is blended with the aroma of butter, and the texture is tender and juicy. It is very delicious~ I chose a simple milky mashed potato as a side dish, and added some mixed vegetables to adjust the texture and taste. Although the preparation is very simple, the taste is outstanding, fragrant and refreshing, and it goes well with thick-flavored steak! Another thing to mention this time is the sauce. When making steaks in the past, I always used more black pepper sauce. This time I made a red wine cream sauce. I have to say, this sauce tastes amazing! Highly recommended!

Steps
-
Prepare steak, garlic, butter, salt, and black pepper. Take the steak out in advance and defrost it at room temperature;
-
Place the steak on kitchen paper and absorb the surface moisture and oozing blood until the kitchen paper no longer sticks to it;
-
Use the back of a knife to loosen the steak. The steak I bought this time was relatively thick, so I knocked it. If the steak itself is very thin (about 1cm), you can omit this step;
-
Evenly coat the surface of the steak with salt and freshly ground black pepper, apply it on both sides, then massage for a few minutes, cover with plastic wrap, and marinate for 3 to 4 hours;
-
While we wait for the steak to marinate, let's make the mashed potatoes. Prepare the ingredients for mashed potatoes;
-
Wash the potatoes, cut them into large pieces, put them in a microwaveable bowl, add about 1/2 of the water, cover the surface with plastic wrap, and heat on high heat for 5 to 6 minutes;
-
To the extent that the potatoes can be easily poked through with chopsticks, filter out the water, remove the potato skins, and mash them into mashed potatoes while hot (let the SpongeBob favorite of carrots show his face~~);
-
Add butter, light cream, salad dressing, salt;
-
Mix all the ingredients until you like the consistency. The mixed vegetables are also heated in the microwave until they are ripe, and then mixed with the mashed potatoes. Cover with a lid or plastic wrap and set aside for later use;
-
Before frying the steak, prepare the ingredients for the red wine cream sauce. Peel the onion and chop into fine pieces;
-
Preheat the oven to 170 degrees. Place the dishes you will use later in the oven together to heat. No need to put oil in the cast iron pot, heat it over high heat until the pot smokes. Add the marinated steak and fry over high heat;
-
Fry until one side is browned, about 30 seconds to 1 minute, then turn the steak over and rub the surface of the steak with halved garlic;
-
After frying until browned, fry the steak on all sides, then turn off the heat, take out the steak, and place it on the plate you just heated (be careful not to burn your hands);
-
Cover the surface with tin foil and place it on the middle shelf of the oven. Turn the heat up and down at 150~160 degrees and bake for 2~3 minutes. After baking, continue to keep it in the oven to keep it warm (the specific time will be adjusted according to the thickness of the steak, etc.). At this time, you can put in the mashed potatoes you just made and heat them together. Remember to cover the surface with tin foil;
-
Make the red wine cream sauce below. There is no need to put any oil in the pan, just use the fat from the steak you just fried. Pour in the chopped onions and heat over low heat;
-
When the chopped onions turn golden brown and the aroma comes out, add red wine and turn to high heat;
-
Add stock, light cream and butter, appropriate amount of salt, bring to a boil over high heat, then turn to medium heat and stir constantly until the sauce thickens;
-
Remove the steak from the oven and pour the sauce over the steak. Then use a mold to shape the mashed potatoes and place it on a plate. Finally, garnish with diced Millennium tomatoes and serve hot.
