Method

STEW

Preheat oven to 150°C.

Liberally season all sides of the short ribs with salt and pepper.

Heat a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat and add the oil.

Sear the short ribs on all sides until browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side, working in batches, if necessary. Set aside on a plate.

Add the onions, carrots, parsnips, celery and garlic to the pot with the short rib drippings and season with some salt and pepper.

Cook the vegetables until they turn golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes.

Add in the tomato paste and cook for 1 minute more.

Add 500ml Guinness Foreign Extra Stout and deglaze the pot, scraping up any developed fond from the bottom.

Bring Guinness to a simmer and season with some salt and pepper.

Add the thyme, bay leaf, and short ribs and any leftover juices from the plate the short ribs were resting on.

Cover the pot and transfer to the oven for 2 to 2 1/2 hours or until meat is fork tender.

Turn the short ribs one time during the cooking process after about 1 hour of cooking.

Once the short ribs are tender, remove them from the braising liquid and set aside to cool.

Skim the fat off the top of the liquid. Then strain the liquid and bring to a simmer until it is reduced by half, about 8 minutes to yield about 150ml of reduced sauce.

Season with some salt and pepper.

Once soft, remove carrots and parsnips from braising liquid, even if meat is not yet done. Finish braising.

Once very fork tender, remove beef from liquid.

Strain and reduce sauce to nape.

Plate on shallow bowl with long bias cuts of carrots and parsnips, one short rib, plenty of reduced braising liquid, 3 dumplings and small dollop of the chive cream and crispy shallots.

JALAPENO DUMPLINGS

Mix flour, baking powder, salt and pepper.

Heat milk and butter until butter is just melted.

Mix dry ingredients and wet ingredients.

Fold in jalapenos.

Form into small dumplings about a tablespoon.

Steam directly on braising liquid or just plain seasoned beef stock in a covered hotel pan for about 18-20 min covered until doubled in size and toothpick comes out clean.

CHIVE CREAM

Mix all ingredients, season with salt if necessary.

CRISPY SHALLOTS

Place oil and shallots in a pan and heat to medium.

Cook gently, 15 minutes until golden and crispy.

Transfer shallots to fine mesh strainer to drain, place on paper towels and season with fine sea salt.
