Try this rich and hearty dish of NZ beef short ribs slow-cooked in a red wine, garlic, and herb-infused tomato sauce. Perfect for entertaining, these tender short ribs are simmered to perfection, absorbing the deep, robust tastes of the wine and herbs. The garlic adds a fragrant punch, while the tomatoes bring a hint of sweetness to balance the rich meat.
This recipe is ideal for a family gathering or a weekend feast, as it can be prepped in stages. The slow-cooked ribs develop even more flavour when made ahead of time and reheated before serving. Pair with creamy mashed potatoes or crusty bread to soak up the luscious sauce, and enjoy a meal that’s full of bold, comforting flavours.
