  1. Heat the olive oil in a large pot over a medium heat.
  2. Once the oil is hot, fry the short ribs until browned. Remove from the pot and lower the heat.

  4. Stir in the gochujang, ketchup, lime juice, hoisin sauce, sugar, fish sauce, soya sauce and water.
  5. Add the browned short ribs and bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring often for 2 hours or until the meat is tender and falling off the bone.
  6. Prepare a grill for medium-high heat.
  7. Brush the ribs with the sunflower oil, place the ribs on the grill, and cook until lightly charred, approx. 5 minutes a side, basting with the extra cooking sauce.
  8. Serve the ribs with a squeeze of lime juice, fresh coriander and the remaining sauce.
