KOREAN BBQ SHORT RIBS (GAL-BI)


the first time i tried korean bbq short ribs, i was having dinner with a past boyfriend and his parents. it was pretty good, they had an indoor grill and we used that right at the table to grill these sectioned off morsel. but, the next time i tried them, i felt like it was the first time all over again. my favorite all-you-can-eat korean bbq restaurant is in mountain view, ginseng korean bbq & tofu. they have quality meats and the marinade is just right. and, if i'm in need of a quick fix, i go to westfield mall in san francisco to make my way to sorabol korean restaurant, where they have the best food court korean bbq i've ever encountered. so, when you love something so much, the best idea is to learn how to make it...and it turned out to be super easy.

  • 3/4 c soy sauce
  • 3/4 c water
  • 3 T white vinegar
  • 1/4 c dark brown sugar
  • 2T white sugar
  • 1 T black pepper
  • 2 T sesame oil
  • 1/4 c minced garlic
  • 1/2 large onion, minced
  • 3 lbs korean-style short ribs (bee chuck flanken, cut 1/3 to 1/2 inch thick across bones)


pour soy sauce, water, and vinegar into a large non-metallic bowl. whisk in brown sugar, white sugar, pepper, sesame oil, garlic, and onion until sugars have dissolved.


submerge the ribs in this marinade, and cover with plastic wrap. refrigerate 7 to 12 hours; the longer, the better. **i securely placed the ribs and marinade in a plastic storage bag and marinaded for 24 hours.


preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat. **george forman users: just plug in :)

remove ribs from the marinade, shake off excess, and discard the marinade. cook on preheated grill until the meat is no longer pink, 5 to 7 minutes per side. **george forman users: only 3-4 minutes per side


my yummy tip: if you're using the george forman, like me, keep the lid propped up and open...it holds the juices better.

BESTILLA...MOROCCAN CHICKEN PIE

the first time i had bestilla was at a moroccan restaurant in san francisco, el mansour , which was served family-style. think along came polly -esque, minus the heat and profusely sweating ben stiller. great image to start a recipe entry, right? anyway, this dish is a meal in itself. the middle eastern-spiced chicken is wrapped in flaky phyllo dough and topped with powdered sugar, making it sweet & savory. i will say that this dish is tasking...this is the first time i used phyllo dough and it is incredibly fragile, but so worth it! i think this is one that will be made for special occasions only.

ALEXANDER'S STEAKHOUSE INVITES A BEAR FOR HIS BIRTHDAY

it's been quite awhile since i posted and if you missed me, i apologize. cute ox origami at the hostess desk for my first post of the year, i wanted to highlight a wonderful night spent at alexander's steakhouse for the husband's (aka "bear") birthday. i call him bear because he's a little hairy, cuddly, docile, and bigger than me (in the picture below, i'm wearing 4in heels and barely shoulder height). there are so many places i'd love to take him to experience food, but was inspired by a post from my friend regina when she took a friend for an expensive steak dinner. i thought this would be the perfect place to celebrate the husband - he likes steak and good food and i was intrigued by the restaurant that took the place of bacar. the service is impeccable - a little too informational at times, but outstanding nonetheless. the ambience can be romantic, intimate, cool, whatever you need it to be depending on your visit. what's also ve...
