This recipe is so mouthwatering we can hardly believe it! Autumn Glory apple gives this dish a unique twist on traditional Korean short ribs. The apples give the sauce a sweet and savory quality that compliments the meat beautifully. Minimal ingredients, along with one-pot directions, make this the perfect weeknight meal served over white rice or in lettuce wraps!
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 pound short rib
- 1 Autumn Glory apple, chopped
- 1 white onion, chopped
- 1 head of garlic, cut in half (skin on)
- ½ cup soy sauce
- 2 cups water or broth
- 1 tablespoon mirin*
- 3 tablespoons sesame oil
- salt and pepper to taste
- Little gem/butter lettuce for wraps
- 2 cups rice for serving
*white wine or rice wine vinegar may be substituted for mirin
Directions
- In a Dutch oven or deep pot, heat vegetable oil and brown your short ribs on all sides. Remove short ribs from the pot and set aside. If there is a lot of oil, remove some, but keep about 1 tablespoon to mix the rest of your ingredients.
- In the same pot, add chopped onions, garlic, and Autumn Glory and mix well for about 10-15 minutes.
- Add soy sauce, mirin, and sesame oil. Stir well to combine. Finish off the braise with water or broth.
- Let braise and simmer on medium-low for about 5-6 hours until fork tender.
- While it’s braising, cook white rice and/or wash lettuce.
- Once done, serve short ribs over rice with extra sauce spooned on top, or place in lettuce wraps for a hand-held meal!
