Asian style beef short ribs

6 beef short ribs

1 large onion chopped

2 inches of ginger chopped

4 cloves of garlic chopped

1 large stick of cinnamon

3-4 bay leaves

2-4 star anise

1/4 cup soya sauce

1/4 cup mirin

1 tablespoon coconut sugar

Brown off your ribs in a large pan then remove them and add onions garlic and ginger fry till golden then add the spices and bay leaves and fry a little longer before deglazing the pan with the liquid ingredients. Transfer the ribs and everything else into a casserole dish cover the meat with a bit of water and cook for around two hours or until soft. Check on it every now and then to make sure the ribs have enough water to cook and also turn them around a few times. Once the meat is tender remove the lid and let the liquid reduce and the ribs get a bit of colour on top.
Serve with steamed rice and vegetables of your choice , I like tender stem broccoli!
