1/2 cup Korean BBQ sauce (or sub 1 tbsp honey + 2 tbsp soy sauce + 2 tsp salt + 1/4 cup water)
1 tbsp oyster sauce
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp sugar
1/2 tbsp salt
Directions
(Optional) Wash the short ribs and soak them in water to remove impurities from the bone for a cleaner-tasting beef.
Chop the kiwi (skin peeled), onion, and pear. Slice the ginger.
Place the garlic, kiwi, onion, pear, ginger, and water in a blender and blend until smooth.
In a bowl, combine the blended marinade with the Korean BBQ sauce, oyster sauce, soy sauce, sugar, and salt. Mix together.
Add the beef to the marinade and refrigerate overnight (about 1 day for maximum flavor). Take out an hour before cooking.
Preheat the air fryer to 390°F. When hot, add the ribs (with some of the marinade) and cook for 20 minutes — use a thermometer, as times vary with the thickness of the bone.
Flip the ribs and cook 5 more minutes for extra char.
Let rest 5-10 minutes and enjoy.
Sweet and savory short ribs with a fruit-based Korean marinade, finished in the air fryer. From cook with dana on Instagram. NOTE: marinate overnight (about 1 day) for maximum flavor — much longer and the kiwi can make the meat mushy.
