Braised Short Rib Plate with black pepper

Method

1. Start by prepping your olive oil, garlic, yellow onion so the cooking goes quickly.
2. Warm a splash of olive oil in a heavy pan over medium heat, then add the garlic and cook until soft and fragrant, about 4 to 5 minutes.
3. Add the braised short rib and let it smoky, undisturbed, so it takes on real color before you stir.
4. Fold in the kosher salt and season generously; give everything a minute to come together.
5. Pour in the coconut milk, bring to a gentle simmer, and cook until thickened and glossy.
6. Taste and adjust, then finish with chili crisp right before serving.
7. Plate it up while hot and pass extra at the table.
