Recipes and food from a Hapa household

i tried this recipe for thanksgiving this year, and it was a great hit.  :)  i was very pleased with how it turned out.  i think it tastes more authentic than the bulgolgi recipe i use.  this recipe is based on this recipe.

serves 8-10

16 korean style beef ribs (they’re usually thin cut and you can find them in korean stores)
1 C soy sauce
3/4 C sugar
1/2 C water
1 asian pear, chopped (or 1/2 korean pear)
1 onion, chopped
5 cloves of garlic, smashed and peeled
4 tbsp sesame oil
2 tbsp sesame seeds
4 slices of ginger
5 green onions, roughly chopped

1. in a food processor, added onion and pear.  puree finely.  pour into a large bowl or large ziploc bag.
2. add the rest of the marinade ingredients (minus ribs) and stir until all ingredients are combined.  add the ribs.
3. marinate beef for 8-10 hours or overnight.
4. heat a large pan or grill on high heat.  oil the pan/grill.  cook ribs for 2-3 minutes on each side.  serve with rice and kimchi.
