Step 1: Braise the short ribs
Season short ribs with salt and pepper. Set the Instant Pot to sauté and add a little oil. Brown the ribs on all sides.
Add soy sauce, broth, brown sugar, garlic, and ginger. Scrape the bottom to prevent sticking.
Pressure cook on high for 45 minutes. Let natural release for 10–15 minutes.
Remove ribs and shred or slice. Reserve a few tablespoons of the cooking liquid.
Step 2: Prepare udon
Cook udon according to package directions. Drain and set aside. Do not overcook.
Step 3: Stir fry
Heat 1–2 tbsp oil in a large pan over medium-high heat.
Add onion and bell pepper. Stir fry 2–3 minutes until slightly tender but still crisp.
Add short rib meat and toss to heat through.
Add udon noodles.
Mix sauce ingredients and pour into the pan. Toss everything together for 2–3 minutes until glossy and well coated.
Turn off heat and mix in green onions.
