Korean Braised Short Ribs (Galbi Jim) image

At my place, we do theme dinner parties, and this one was from Korean night. I had tried different versions of this recipe, and after mixing and matching, I like this one the best. The addition of Sriracha - an Asian chile/garlic paste also known as "Rooster Sauce" - was my embellishment, and probably not authentic - but I like sweet & spicy! The authentic preparation calls for bone-in short ribs to get more flavor, but I have to admit, I've done it with boneless, and I actually like it better that way. I served it with rice and a Korean cold spinach-sesame salad known as Shigmchi Namul, which I'll post also. Two words: Rave Reviews! They went back for seconds and thirds!

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 tablespoons sugar
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup sherry wine
1 -2 tablespoon hot sauce (Sriracha, or your favorite hot sauce to taste)
1 tablespoon mirin (or 1 Tbsp honey)
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1/2 small onion, grated
3 scallions, finely chopped
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1/2 Asian pear, peeled and chopped
1 1/2 lbs beef short ribs, bone-in (about 4)
2 small potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
2 medium carrots, peeled and cut into chunks

Steps:

  • Mix together all ingredients except ribs, asian pear, potatoes, and carrots. Score the ribs and pour the marinade over. Marinate for about an hour in the refrigerator, or overnight. (Marinating is optional).
  • Pour the ribs and marinade into a large pot over high heat. Liquid should come at least halfway up to the level of the ribs; add water if necessary.
  • When liquid comes to a full boil, cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid and turn the heat down to simmer.
  • Cook for 90 minutes to 1 hour, until meat is tender. Add the Asian pear, potato and carrot about 30 minutes before the end of the cooking time.
  • Serve with rice.
