H-06 LIFTOFF
GARLIC GHOST
KOREAN SHORT RIBS.
Thin-cut beef short ribs marinated in soy, garlic, ginger and H-06 LIFTOFF, then grilled over fierce heat until sticky, caramelised and lightly charred.
HOW TO MAKE IT
METHOD.
MAKE THE MARINADE.
Combine the soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, H-06 LIFTOFF, garlic, ginger, rice vinegar, black pepper and grated pear or apple in a large bowl. Stir until the sugar begins to dissolve.
PREP THE RIBS.
Pat the short ribs dry and check for any loose bone fragments left from cutting. Trim only thick pieces of external fat, leaving the marbling intact.
MARINATE.
Add the ribs to the marinade and turn until every surface is thoroughly coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least four hours. Overnight gives the deepest flavour.
HEAT THE GRILL.
Heat a barbecue, grill plate or cast-iron pan over high heat. The cooking surface should be properly hot before the ribs go on. Lightly oil the surface to help prevent sticking.
DRAIN THE EXCESS.
Remove the ribs from the marinade and allow the excess liquid to drip away. Too much wet marinade can steam the beef and burn before the surface has time to caramelise.
GRILL HOT AND FAST.
Cook the ribs in batches for approximately two to three minutes per side. Flip once and cook until the edges are charred and the marinade has formed a dark, sticky glaze.
REST BRIEFLY.
Transfer the ribs to a warm plate and rest for two to three minutes. Keep the rest short so the meat remains hot and juicy.
FINISH AND SERVE.
Scatter over sliced spring onion and toasted sesame seeds. Serve immediately with steamed rice, kimchi, pickled cucumber and extra H-06 LIFTOFF.
HARRY'S TIP
HOT. FAST. DONE.
Flanken-cut ribs are thin and heavily marbled. They need fierce heat and only a few minutes per side. Cook them slowly and they become chewy. Cook them too long and they become expensive jerky.
THE IMPORTANT PART
MARINATE WITH
H-06 LIFTOFF.
Roasted garlic flavour and building ghost pepper heat sit naturally beside soy, ginger, sesame and caramelised beef. Built for high heat and poor restraint.
