Ingredients:
8 pounds beef short ribs, cut across the bone |
2 garlic cloves |
1 bay leaf |
1 cup ketchup |
1 cup pineapple juice |
1/2 cup soy sauce |
3 tablespoons honey |
2 tablespoons oyster sauce, bottled |
1/2 tablespoon chile paste |
2 teaspoons granulated garlic |
2 slices lemon |
2 slices orange |
4 scallions, chopped |
1 (2-inch) slice fresh ginger |
1 red bell pepper, roasted and seeds removed, chopped |
1 bay leaf |
2 camomile tea bags |
4 tablespoons sesame seeds |
Directions:
1. Fill a large stockpot with water and bring to a boil. Add the ribs, garlic cloves and bay leaf. Parboil the ribs, covered, for 45 minutes to 1 hour, until fork tender. In the meantime, make the sauce. 2. In a medium saucepan, combine all ingredients, except sesame seeds. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for approximately 15 minutes until the sauce has thickened and is heated through. Place a strainer over a bowl and pour the sauce through it to remove the solids. Add the ribs to the bowl of sauce, turning with tongs to well coat. Arrange the ribs in a single layer on a cookie sheet and pour a ladle full of sauce over the ribs so they are well covered. Sprinkle with sesame seeds. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 20 to 30 minutes. Serve with remaining sauce on the side. |
