Follow The Directions

01

Step

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. (2 minutes)

02

Step

Place 1/2 cup flour in a resealable plastic bag or large bowl; add ribs and toss until completely coated. Pour oil into the preheated pan; heat until shimmering. Shake any excess flour off ribs, then add to hot oil. Cool until brown on all sides, about 10 minutes.

03

Step

While ribs are browning, stir together 1 cup hot water and bouillon cubes in a pressure cooker until dissolved. Use tongs to remove ribs from the skillet to the pressure cooker. Seal according to manufacturer's directions and cook for 25 minutes.

04

Step

Release pressure and open the cooker according to manufacturer's directions. Pour in canned tomatoes, carrots, onions, and garlic. Simmer, uncovered, until vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes.

05

Step

Meanwhile, place potatoes in a large pot and cover with water by 1 inch. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 20 minutes.

06

Step

Remove ribs to a serving platter. Stir together 1 cup water and 3 tablespoons flour in a liquid measure. Stir into vegetables in the pressure cooker and cook until sauce thickens, about 5 minutes.

07

Step

Drain cooked potatoes and add to stew along with peas. Cook until warmed through, then season with salt and pepper.

For an even richer flavor, consider searing the short ribs in rendered beef fat instead of canola oil.
If you don't have a pressure cooker, you can simmer the ribs in a Dutch oven for 2-3 hours until they are fall-apart tender.
Fresh herbs like thyme or rosemary can add a delightful aromatic dimension to the stew.
Adjust the amount of water to achieve your desired stew consistency.

    Michael R., try adding a cornstarch slurry (1 tbsp cornstarch mixed with 2 tbsp cold water) towards the end to thicken it up. - Author
