Bahan-bahan

Soon tofu: I buy the pre-packaged BCD soondubu packs at Hmart, found at the tofu section

2 lbs Korean or LA-style beef short ribs

Cold water + 1 tbsp sugar (optional) for soaking

Marinade:

1/2 onion, chopped

1 small Fuji apple, chopped

1 cup cold water (for blending)

3 cups cold water (for mixing)

1 ¾ cups regular soy sauce (not low-sodium)

½ cup dark brown sugar

4 tbsp minced garlic

1 bunch green onions, chopped

3 tbsp sesame oil

¼ cup honey or corn syrup (helps bind ingredients)

2 tsp ground black pepper

Arahan

Soak the ribs in cold water + sugar (optional) for 30 minutes in the fridge.

While soaking, blend the onion, apple, and 1 cup water into a smooth puree.

In a large bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, green onions, sesame oil, honey (or corn syrup), and black pepper.

Add the apple-onion puree + 3 cups water and mix everything well.

Drain and gently rub the rib bones to remove any bone fragments.

In an airtight container, layer the ribs with the marinade — start with a little sauce on the bottom, add meat, more sauce, and repeat.

Marinate overnight (or at least 12 hours) in the fridge.

Air-fry at 375°F (no preheating) for 15 minutes, flipping halfway through.

Tip:

Got leftover marinade? Use it for bulgogi! Just keep in mind: the flavor may be stronger since bulgogi meat is thinner and soaks it up faster.
