Description

This soy sauce-based beef stew is a traditional Korean dish that's perfect for serving on cold days.

Ingredients

2 pounds beef short ribs, trimmed
1 green onion, chopped
2 carrots, peeled and chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 (1 inch) piece fresh ginger root, chopped
1/2 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 cups water to cover

Directions

1 Score the surface of each beef short rib in a diamond pattern. Combine beef, green onion, carrots, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and brown sugar in a large skillet. Pour enough water to cover the beef. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer until beef is tender, about 1 hour. Skim off excess oil before serving.
