Recipe: Short Rib Stew in Red Wine

Did you know, making stew is like boiling good soup?  It has to be simmering away in the same temperature over a period of time.  So, don't you lift up that lid to peek.  :)

Ingredients:

10 short ribs

1 tbsp corn flour

1/2 large onion

1 tomato, diced

1 carrot, roughly chopped

Gravy:

1/2 cup red wine

1 small can tomato sauce (any brand)

Pinch of salt

Dash of pepper (White or Black to your liking)

1/2 tsp sugar

1 cup water

Easy steps:

1. Coat ribs with corn flour and pan-fry in hot oil till both sides are nice and golden brown. Then, transfer into your stewing pot.
2. Throw in onions, tomato and pour tomato sauce, red wine and water in. Close the lid and allow it to simmer over medium low flame for 25mins.
3. Drop the potatoes and carrots in and allow it to simmer for another 15mins.
4. Stir in salt, pepper and sugar.  

That's it! Serve with rice and a simple vege dish.  Try it out and tell me what you think.
