Cooking steps
1. Heat vegetable oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
2. Season the beef short ribs with salt and pepper, then sear them in the hot oil until browned on all sides. Remove the ribs from the pan and set aside.
3. In the same pan, add the chopped onion and cook until softened and translucent.
4. Add the minced garlic and ginger, and cook for another minute until fragrant.
5. Add the ground cumin, ground coriander, turmeric powder, and cinnamon powder to the pan, and stir well to coat the onions and spices evenly.
6. Return the beef short ribs to the pan, along with any juices that accumulated. Add water and bring to a boil.
7. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pan, and simmer for about 2 hours, or until the beef is tender and falling off the bones.
8. Meanwhile, prepare the arborio rice according to package instructions. (Usually, this involves rinsing the rice, then cooking it in a 2:1 ratio of water to rice until all the liquid is absorbed.)
9. Once the beef short ribs are cooked, remove them from the pan and shred the meat, discarding any bones or excess fat.
10. Return the shredded beef to the pan and stir well to combine with the flavorful sauce.
11. Serve the Indian-style beef short ribs over a bed of cooked arborio rice.
12. Garnish with freshly grated Parmesan cheese and chopped cilantro.
13. Optionally, serve with a side of steamed greens like spinach or green beans.

Cooking a new dish
Starting to cook a new dish begins with selecting a recipe that matches your skill level and gathering all the necessary ingredients. Before diving in, read through the entire recipe to understand the steps and timing involved. Next, prepare your workspace by cleaning the countertops, organizing your tools, and setting out ingredients. Prepping the ingredients—such as washing, chopping, and measuring—is key to ensuring a smooth cooking process. As you cook, follow the recipe step by step, taking your time and tasting along the way to adjust flavors. Finally, serve the dish with care and enjoy the fruits of your labor.
Preparing your workspace correctly
Preparing your workspace involves starting with clean countertops, organizing your tools and equipment, and setting out all the necessary ingredients within reach. Arrange your tools, like knives, cutting boards, and measuring cups, close by for easy access, and pre-measure ingredients if possible to save time during cooking. It's helpful to have a trash bowl for food scraps to keep the area tidy. Ensure your workspace is well-lit and free of unnecessary items to maximize space. If your recipe requires it, preheat the oven or pans while organizing your space. Having a clean and organized workspace makes the cooking process more efficient and enjoyable.
Preparing your ingredients in advance
Prepping ingredients, or "mise en place," involves getting everything ready before cooking. This includes washing and chopping vegetables, measuring out ingredients, and preparing items like garlic, onions, or meat as required by the recipe. You might also marinate, soften, or melt ingredients if needed. Once prepped, arrange everything in small bowls or containers for easy access during cooking. This preparation helps streamline the cooking process and ensures you can focus on cooking without interruptions.
