Ingredients
Execution
01
Prepare the Short Ribs: Rinse the beef short ribs under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Trim any excess fat from the ribs if desired.
02
Make the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, minced garlic, grated ginger, sesame oil, and gochujang until well combined.
03
Marinate the Ribs: Place the beef short ribs in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the ribs, ensuring that they are evenly coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the meat to tenderize.
04
Pressure Cook the Ribs: Transfer the marinated short ribs and sliced onion to the Instant Pot. Close the lid and set the Instant Pot to “Manual” mode on high pressure for 35-40 minutes, depending on the thickness of the ribs.
05
Natural Release: Once the cooking cycle is complete, allow the Instant Pot to release pressure for 10-15 minutes naturally. Then, carefully release any remaining pressure manually.
06
Serve: Carefully remove the cooked short ribs from the Instant Pot and transfer them to a serving platter. Garnish with chopped green onions and toasted sesame seeds. Serve hot with cooked rice on the side.
Additional Tips
- For added flavour, sear the short ribs in a hot skillet before placing them in the Instant Pot.
- Adjust the level of spiciness by varying the amount of gochujang according to your taste preferences.
