Maeun Galbi Bulgogi (Korean Spicy Pork Rib BBQ)

Korean BBQ dish is my all time favourite.  The marinate sauce is the key in making tasty bulgogi! It's quite an easy dish to make despite the marinating process may take some time.  If you plan to have a bbq party, marinate it overnight and grill them the next day.  The sweet and spicy flavor plus slightly burnt taste is finger licking good!  Today I am making pork rib bbq (spicy version).

1.  Soak pork ribs in water to get rid of the blood for an hour.

2.  Drain and pour the water away.  Add in marinate sauce, rub and mix the sauce well to the pork ribs.

3.  Cover with cling wrap and marinate in fridge for 2-4 hours.

4.  Prepare a pot (best if use non-stick pot).  Put in the marinated pork ribs.

5.  Pour about a cup of water (250ml) and let it simmer for 30-45 minutes with lid on over low fire.  Check and stir occasionally to prevent the meat stick on the pot.

6.  Open the lid and keep simmer for about 3 to 5 minutes to thicken the sauce.

     ** If you prefer some burnt and chewy texture of meat.  Skip the water part, simmer for 30 minutes on low fire with lid on.  Check and stir frequently too to avoid over-burnt.

7.  Serve and garnish with some chopped spring onion.
