- 1 medium yellow onion, roughly chopped
- 2 medium carrots, roughly chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, smashed
- 2 tbsp tomato paste
- 1 cup dry red wine (such as cabernet sauvignon or merlot)
- 1 ½ cups low-sodium beef broth
- 2 sprigs fresh thyme
- 1 sprig fresh rosemary
- 1 tbsp worcestershire sauce

Set the Instant Pot to Sauté (high). Add the olive oil and heat until shimmering. Working in two batches to avoid crowding, sear the short ribs for 3–4 minutes per side until deeply browned on all four sides, then transfer to a plate. Pour off all but about 1 tbsp of fat from the pot.
