½ can Tomato Paste

3-4 Thyme Sprigs

3 Bay Leaves

1.5 cups Red Wine

2 quarts Beef Stock

3 ounces Demi Glaze

Preheat the oven to 350 Degrees

Dust the ribs with the corn starch and brown in a large roasting pan until well caramelized on the outside. Remove from the pan and set aside.

Add the vegetables and brown add garlic, tomato paste thyme and bay leaves. Cook for three minutes. Add the wine and reduce by half. Add the stock and demi glaze.

Return the ribs to the pan and braise for 3 hours.

Creamy Parmesan Polenta

1 cup chicken stock

1 cup heavy cream

Pinch red pepper flakes

½ cup medium grind polenta

In a double boiler bring the stock, cream and red pepper to a simmer. Add polenta and stir occasionally for about ten minutes. Add butter and the parmesan and ricotta cheeses and cook until well blended and creamy. Season with salt to taste.
