Instructions

  1. Rinse the ribs under water to remove bone bits, then drain. Trim any large chunks of fat.
  2. While the ribs drain, cut the onion into chunks (or halve it if small) and cut the green onions into shorter lengths.
  3. In a blender, blend the onion and ½ cup water until smooth.
  4. Add 1 cup soy sauce, ½ cup red wine, 1 cup sugar, the garlic cloves, green onions, 4 Tbsp sesame oil, 1 Tbsp sesame seeds, 1 tsp black pepper and, if using, 2 Tbsp green plum syrup. Blend until smooth.
  5. Put the ribs in a container, pour over the marinade and mix so each piece is evenly coated.
  6. Marinate in the fridge for at least 1 hour, up to overnight. If short on time, 30 minutes will work.
  7. Heat the oven broiler for 5 minutes.
  8. Lay the ribs on a metal grill pan and broil on the top rack for 4 minutes. Turn them over and grill for another 3 minutes.
  9. Serve immediately with rice and Korean side dishes.
