Method
Step 1
In a large Dutch oven over medium high heat, add oil. Season ribs with salt and pepper and sear on all sides until browned. Remove short ribs and set aside.
Step 2
Lower heat to medium and add onions, garlic, coriander, ginger, cinnamon stick, orange and lemon peel and sauté 5 minutes until onion is softened.
Step 3
Add soy, hoisin, gochujang, rice wine, brown sugar, fish sauce and orange juice and mix to combine. Add water and bring to boil. Return ribs to Dutch oven, ensuring ribs are covered with liquid—add more if necessary.
Step 4
Cover and place Dutch oven and cook 2-2 1/2 hrs. until meat is falling from the bone. Serve in Dutch oven or carefully transfer to serving platter. Sprinkle with green onion and cilantro and serve immediately.
