Description

Braised meat is served in a toasted baguette with a spicy Korean gochujang sauce, a fried egg, and tangy pickled onions.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 short ribs, braised and meat shredded (Click the link above for a braising guide.)
  • 2 eggs, fried over easy
  • 1 small baguette (I used whole grain)
  • cilantro, as garnish
  • sesame seeds, as garnish

For the Spicy Gochujang Sauce:

  • 3 TBS gochujang
  • 1 tsp honey
  • 1 TBS sesame oil
  • 1 tsp soy sauce
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 1 TBS brown sugar

For the Pickled Red Onions & Garlic:

  • ½ red onion, sliced thin
  • 2 garlic cloves, sliced thin
  • 2 limes, juiced
  • 1 orange, juiced
  • dash sugar
  • salt

Instructions

  1. First things first, you’ll need to braise the short ribs, remove the bone and then shred the meat. Visit this page for instructions on how to do just that. Personally, I like to remove all the fat (cause I think it tastes better than way) and it’s easiest to do while shredding.
  2. Next, bring a small pot of water to a boil. Blanch the red onion and garlic for 15 seconds and then drain the liquid. Place onion/garlic in a container with the lime juice, orange juice, sugar, and salt. Allow to pickle for 1 hour. You’ll want to remove from juice before eating.
  3. In a small bowl combine all ingredients for the spicy gochujang sauce. Whisk until sugar is dissolved.
  4. Assemble your sandwich by cutting the bread in half the long way, pile on the rib meat, top with sauce, then pickled red onions/garlic, eggs, cilantro, and sesame seeds.
