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

Directions

Step 1

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.

Step 2

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.

Step 3

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.

Step 4

Return the ribs to the pot. Pour in the coconut milk and broth, ensuring the ribs are mostly submerged. Bring to a gentle simmer.

Step 5

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.

Step 6

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.

Step 7

Once the ribs are cooked and the meat is tender, taste and adjust seasoning if needed.

Step 8

Serve the Jamaican curry beef ribs hot, topped with the fresh papaya mango salsa. Pair with rice or bread for a complete meal.
