Tender stuffed onions baked over a bed of seared bone-in short ribs, soaking up all that incredible flavor in a rich pomegranate molasses sauce. Best part? You can make the entire dish ahead of time, making it perfect for your holiday table. You can find a printable recipe on my website plus a link to all of the items used in this video at sivanskitchen.com STUFFED ONIONS • 6 extra-large onions • 1 cup raw short-grain rice • 2 tomatoes, finely chopped • 1 onion, finely chopped • ¼ bunch each parsley, mint & dill, finely chopped • 1 heaping tbsp tomato paste • 2 tbsp pomegranate molasses • ¼ cup olive oil • 2 tsp salt • 1 tsp black pepper • Juice of 1 lemon SHORT RIBS • 2 lbs Korean-style bone-in short ribs, about ¾-inch thick • Salt & pepper • Drizzle of oil SAUCE • ¼ cup tomato paste • 2 tbsp pomegranate molasses • 2 tbsp date molasses (or maple syrup) • 3 tbsp oil • 2 tsp salt • 1 tsp black pepper • 1 tbsp dried mint • Juice of 1 lemon • 2 cups reserved onion water INSTRUCTIONS Peel onions and cut a slit halfway through each from top to bottom. Place in a large pot, cover with water and boil about 30 minutes, until softened. Meanwhile, combine all filling ingredients and set aside. Season short ribs generously with salt and pepper. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large oven-safe pot over medium heat and sear ribs for a few minutes per side until beautifully browned. Turn off heat. Remove softened onions, reserving 2 cups of the onion water, and let cool. Carefully separate the onion layers. Add a spoonful of filling to each layer, roll tightly and arrange over the seared short ribs. Mix all sauce ingredients together and pour evenly over the stuffed onions. Cover directly with parchment paper, then cover the pot with its lid or tightly with foil. Bake at 375°F for about 2 hours, until the onions are tender and everything is beautifully caramelized. Serve warm and enjoy. ❤️ Shana Tova U’Metuka! 🍎🍯 Wishing you all a sweet and beautiful Jewish New Year. ##sivanskitchen##EasyRecipe##holiday##stuffedonions##meat
