My dear friend Erica has been waiting for this recipe a long time.  (Sorry, Erica)

Curried Beef Short Ribs

1 Tbs. fish sauce
1 tsp. grated lime rind
1 Tbs. lime juice

1. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium high heat.  Sprinkle ribs with 3/4 tsp. salt and 1/8 tsp. pepper.  Add half of ribs to pan; cook 2 minutes on each side or until browned.  Place ribs in an electric slow cooker.  Repeat procedure with remaining ribs.

2. Add shallots, garlic, and ginger to pan; saute 2 minutes.  Stir in 1/4 cup water and curry paste; cook 1 minute.  Stir in coconut milk, sugar, and fish sauce.  Add coconut milk mixture to cooker.  Cover and cook on low 6 hours.

3. Remove ribs from cooker; keep warm.  Strain fat off the top.  Stir in remaining 3/4 tsp. salt, remaining 1/8 tsp. pepper, rind and juice.  Shred rib meat with 2 forks; discard bones. Serve over rice.

Really tasty!  Enjoy!
