We're still in the golden country, time for a delectable minotaur main!
I got some beef short ribs... are those the right cut? Well it's all I can find. And since its the GOLDEN country I got some instant GOLDEN rice to serve them on.
I guess I will try slow-cooking in the oven. Since its described as bland and it looks fairly dry, I guess I will try and keep the flavourings simple and homely. So I'm seasoning it with olive oil, celery salt, ginger & chilli mix, and dried oregano.
Wrapping these up and sticking them in the oven on a lower temperature for... 6 hours!? That feels illegal. Should I turn my central heating off to compensate?
Half the day has passed... these have shrunk a bit but they look and smell rich and beefy and they seem tender.
I'm really happy with the beef, it's all tender and stringy. Perhaps I should get a slow-cooker someday. Maybe its because im getting over a nasty virus but the rice has a slightly weird taste? Is it because of added stabilisers? It's nice enough though and adds a pleasant texture. Maybe I should have added a touch of sugar to the beef. The dish overall would have benefited from being slathered in BBQ sauce.
