Easy, Flavourful, and Perfectly Tender

When you want a dish that’s bold, juicy, and packed with savoury depth, these Beef Short Ribs are the answer. Using Nutrafarms’ premium beef short ribs, this recipe turns a simple cut into an unforgettable meal—crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and coated in a deliciously sticky glaze.

Best of all? You can cook them two ways: stovetop or air fryer. Either way, the result is pure comfort food with a touch of sesame-infused magic.

👩‍🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Cut the Ribs

Use kitchen scissors to cut the short ribs into bite-sized pieces. This helps them cook faster and makes them easier to enjoy.

2. Season the Ribs

In a bowl, mix soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, garlic powder, pepper, corn starch, and baking powder. Toss the rib pieces in the mixture until fully coated. Set aside the sesame oil and seeds for later.

3. Cook the Ribs — Two Ways

Stovetop: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook ribs for about 5 minutes per side, until caramelised and cooked through.
Air Fryer: Preheat to 400°F (200°C) and cook ribs for 10 minutes, flipping halfway through.

4. Finish & Serve

Drizzle with sesame oil and sprinkle sesame seeds on top before plating. Serve hot with rice, noodles, or your favourite veggies.
