Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds beef short ribs
- 3 tablespoons yellow curry powder
- 1 teaspoon allspice
- 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 scotch bonnet pepper, finely chopped
- 1 can (14 oz) coconut milk
- 1 cup chicken or beef broth
- 1 cup papaya, diced
- 1 cup mango, diced
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 2 tablespoons cilantro, chopped
Instructions
Season the beef ribs with curry powder, allspice, turmeric, ground ginger, salt, and black pepper. Rub the spices into the ribs and let marinate for 20 minutes.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large deep pot over medium-high heat. Sear the ribs for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. Remove the ribs and set aside.
In the same pot, reduce the heat to medium and sauté the diced onion, minced garlic, and scotch bonnet pepper for 2-3 minutes until fragrant.
Return the ribs to the pot. Pour in the coconut milk and broth, ensuring the ribs are mostly submerged. Bring to a gentle simmer.
Cover the pot and cook on low heat for 1.5 to 2 hours, stirring occasionally, until the ribs are tender and the sauce has thickened.
While the ribs cook, prepare the papaya mango salsa. In a bowl, combine diced papaya, diced mango, lime juice, and chopped cilantro. Mix well and set aside.
Once the ribs are cooked and the meat is tender, taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Serve the Jamaican curry beef ribs hot, topped with the fresh papaya mango salsa. Pair with rice or bread for a complete meal.
