korean rib stew

A dish I adopted from my friend, Tracy. She served this in our small get-together at her place a couple of months ago. Such a simple stew yet the sauce has a very pungent Korean taste to it, all because of a special barbeque sauce. Finally I was able to find one in the infamous Hongkong Market in Woodside, NY. Though Tracy said I should specifically use Korean beef, I went on with beef ribs that's on hand.


HOW-TO

beef ribs
1/2 c beef barbeque sauce for marinade plus 1/2 cup for simmering
and 2 T more for added flavor
2 T vegetable oil
1 onion, quartered
S/P to taste
1 c water
6-8 Broccoli florettes

MARINATE ribs in barbeque sauce 30 minutes to an hour depending on how much time you have.:)

SAUTE onions in vegetable oil. Add marinated ribs. Season with S/P, then add the marinade and cook through for 2-3 minutes. Pour 1 cup water. Cover and simmer. Add the remaining 1/2 c sauce and continue simmering until the meat is tender. Be sure there is still enough water otherwise you'll have burnt barbeque instead of a stew!:)

ADD broccoli. I added 2 more Tbsps. of the sauce for more flavor. Cook through uncovered for 2-3 more minutes. Some S/P to taste. PLATE and SERVE!

..the kids liked it so much and the dish is a cross between the Filipino classic ADOBO and ASADO which are both natural kiddie faves!
