INSTANT POT KOREAN STYLE SHORT RIBS

Steps:

• Whisk together the soy sauce, gochujang, ginger, brown sugar, pear, garlic, 2 tablespoons sesame oil and 1/4 cup water in a 6-quart Instant Pot®. Place the short ribs on top and follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and preparing to cook. Set to pressure cook on high for 25 minutes (see Cook's Note). After the pressure cook cycle is complete, follow the manufacturer's guide for quick release and wait until the quick release cycle is complete. Be careful of any remaining steam and unlock and remove the lid. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the meat to a large bowl, then cover and set aside.
• Set the pot to saute on high for 30 minutes and let reduce until the liquid is thick and glazy, about 15 minutes (about 1/2 cup of sauce will remain). Set the pot to off and transfer the reduced sauce to the meat, then toss to coat.
• Meanwhile, toss the scallions, cucumber, rice vinegar, gochugaru, sesame seeds, granulated sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt and remaining tablespoon sesame oil in a medium bowl and cover and chill until ready to serve.
• For charred short ribs (optional): Position an oven rack as high as it can go in the oven and preheat the broiler to high. Transfer the glazed ribs to a rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet and broil until lightly charred on both sides, about 1 minute per side.
• Serve the ribs over steamed rice topped with the pickled cucumbers, additional scallions and sesame seeds.

• Select the "Saute" setting on an electric pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®); add olive oil and butter. Cook and stir until butter melts, about 2 minutes. Add 3 short ribs to hot butter-oil mixture. Cook until bottom is browned, about 8 minutes. Transfer browned short ribs to a plate. Repeat cooking with remaining short ribs, reserving butter-oil mixture in the pot.
• Cook and stir onion, carrots, garlic, and rosemary in the hot butter-oil mixture, scraping browned bits off the sides of pot, until onion is softened and starting to brown, about 5 minutes. Add reserved wine marinade; stir well. Simmer until wine is reduced by 1/2, about 10 minutes.

INSTANT-POT SHORT RIBS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a liquid measuring cup or medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, gochujang (adjust the quantity based on your preferred spice level), and honey.
• Place the short ribs in a deep baking dish or large bowl and season generously on both sides with salt and pepper. Pour the soy sauce mixture over the ribs. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, up to overnight.
• Preheat a 6-quart (6 Liter) Instant Pot on the high sauté setting. Once hot, add the coconut oil.
• Remove the short ribs from the marinade and let any excess marinade drip off. Reserve the marinade for later.
• Working in batches, add the short ribs to the Instant Pot and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side, until deeply caramelized. Transfer the short ribs to a baking sheet as they finish cooking and repeat with the remaining ribs.
• After the short ribs are seared, add the pear, shallot, ginger, and garlic to the Instant Pot. Season with salt and pepper, and sauté for 4-5 minutes, or until the mixture is golden brown.
• Return the short ribs to the Instant Pot, then pour in the reserved marinade. Place the lid on the Instant Pot, make sure the lid is set to "Sealing," and change the setting to high pressure cooker. Set the timer for 20 minutes.
• At the end of 20 minutes, carefully release the pressure from the Instant Pot by turning the knob from "Sealing" to "Venting," making sure your hand is not over the release switch as the hot steam will come out of the top. Wait for the pressure to release and the Instant Pot to unlock before taking off the lid.
• Remove the short ribs from the pot and change the setting to high sauté. Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook for about 5 minutes, or until reduced to about 2 cups (480 ml)
• Add the cornstarch to the water and mix until completely dissolved. Add the slurry to the sauce and whisk continuously for another 3 minutes, or until the sauce thickens. Remove from the heat and let cool slightly. Skim off any excess oil from the top of the sauce, if desired.
• Serve the short ribs over white rice. Pour about ½ cup (120 ml) of the sauce over the ribs and serve the rest on the side. Garnish with toasted sesame seeds, cilantro, and scallions, and serve with kimchi, if desired.
• Enjoy!
