Instructions by Womans Health Mag
Ingredients:
- 20 oz. (1-1/4 lb.) ground boneless beef short ribs*
- 20 oz. (1-1/4 lb.) ground veal
- 3 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 3 tbsp red wine (the bolder the flavour, the better)
- 1 egg (optional)
- Salt and fresh black pepper
* Ask your butcher to debone and grind short rib meat. Advise the butcher not to trim off too much of the fat, as it adds a lot of flavour. Note that deboned meat is about two-thirds the weight of bone-in — handy to know especially when increasing batch size.
