Equipment

  • Chopping board
  • Chef Knives
  • measuring/weighing utensils
  • tongs
  • spoon
  • baking/roasting tray

Ingredients

  • 8 short ribs

Sauce

  • 75 ml kecap manis
  • 2 tbsp gochujang
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 1 star anise
  • 1 lemongrass
  • 1 thumbsized piece ginger
  • 400 ml water
  • 75 ml Chinese cooking wine

Instructions

  • Peel & smash garlic, slice ginger, smash and chop lemongrass
  • Mix all sauce ingredients together
  • Place ribs in a baking tray flesh side down and pour sauce over them
  • Cover and marinade in the fridge for minimum 2 hours or overnight
  • Heat oven to 150c and cover ribs with baking paper and tinfoil. Cook for 3-3.5hrs until ribs are fork tender
  • Increase the heat to 210c, turn ribs over so they are flesh side up and cook for another 30 minutes – basting every 10mins (this helps gets a nice sticky glaze)
  • If your sauce is too liquidy then mix 1 tsp cornflour with 1 tbsp water and stir it through, cook for another 10 minutes
  • Serve with rice and/or smashed cucumber salad

Notes

Tips/Tricks

  • the longer you marinate them, the more flavour the ribs will take on, so if you can do it the night before, the better 😉
  • add more or less gochujang to make it more/less spicy. 2 tbsp for me, was the right balance for everyone's taste buds
  • you can cook this dish in advance and reheat it in the oven @ 150c for 30-40mins or until ribs are cooked through
  • slow cooking is never the same every time so check your ribs after 2.5 hours and if they need more or less time for them to me melt in your mouth, do so at the lower temp of 150c
