1. Prep the Short Ribs
Pat the short ribs dry with paper towels and sprinkle them evenly with kosher salt.
2. Brown the Ribs
Heat the vegetable oil in your Instant Pot using the highest sauté function. Once the oil is shimmering, add half of the ribs to the pot. Let them cook undisturbed until browned all over, about 8-10 minutes. Transfer the browned ribs to a plate and repeat with the remaining ribs.
3. Cook Aromatics
Add the grated ginger and minced garlic to the Instant Pot. Cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant, stirring constantly.
4. Form the Roux
Stir in the all-purpose flour, cooking for another 30 seconds to form a roux that will help thicken the sauce.
5. Prepare the Sauce
Pour in the coconut milk and add the red curry paste, sugar, and fish sauce. Whisk everything together until smooth, making sure to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
6. Cook the Ribs
Return the browned ribs and any accumulated juices to the pot. Secure the lid, close the pressure-release valve, and select the high pressure-cook function. Cook for 45 minutes. Let the pressure release naturally for 15 minutes before performing a quick release.
7. Finish the Sauce
Remove the lid and transfer the ribs to a platter, tenting them with aluminum foil to keep warm. Let the sauce settle, then skim off any fat. Stir in the lime juice.
8. Serve
Pour the sauce over the ribs and sprinkle with sliced scallions. Serve hot.
Try chicken, lamb, or a vegetarian option like sweet potatoes and cauliflower.
Create Thai Green Curry, Massaman Curry, or West Indian Curry.
Add vinegar and chili for a Vindaloo variant or blend nuts for a Korma variant.
Use tomato sauce or yogurt instead of coconut milk.
Substitute with chicken thighs, beef chuck, eggplant, or portobello mushrooms.
