Steps

  1. Wash the LA-style short ribs under running water to remove bone dust, pour 500ml of cola into a mixing bowl, and marinate for 15 minutes to tenderize.

  2. Chop the green onions, separating the white and green parts.

  3. Mix dark soy sauce, sugar, mirin, blended pear juice, minced garlic, sesame oil, sesame salt, black pepper, water, and the white part of green onions to make the marinade.

  4. Add the LA-style short ribs to the marinade and marinate for 3 hours.

  5. Heat grape seed oil in a pan and sear the marinated ribs until browned, then pour in the remaining sauce to deglaze.

  6. Cut the ribs into bite-sized pieces and plate them, then make a butter sauce by adding butter and chopped green onions to the remaining sauce.

  7. Mix the warm instant rice with furikake and sesame oil, then plate.

  8. Top with cabbage kimchi, the green part of chopped green onions, egg yolk, and drizzle with the galbi butter sauce to finish.
