KOREAN BEEF BULGOGI

Steps:

• Wrap steak in plastic wrap, and place in the freezer for 30 minutes. Unwrap and slice across the grain into 1/4-inch thick slices. In a medium bowl, combine pear, soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger and gochujang. In a gallon size Ziploc bag, combine soy sauce mixture and steak; marinate for at least 2 hours to overnight, turning the bag occasionally. Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a cast iron grill pan over medium-high heat.* Working in batches, add steak to the grill pan in a single layer and cook, flipping once, until charred and cooked through, about 2-3 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil and steak. Serve immediately, garnished with green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.

BULGOGI - AUTHENTIC KOREAN BBQ BEEF RECIPE

Steps:

• Make sauce by mixing all of the marinade ingredients together except for any optional vegetables such as onions or mushrooms.
• Mix in the bulgogi beef into the sauce prepared above - in a bowl big enough to hold the beef. Make sure the sauce is well mixed with the beef. You will need to use your hands here and just massage everything together.
• Heat up your favorite frying pan on high heat and just pan fry/stir fry the meat until it's slightly brown on both sides.

BULGOGI: KOREAN BBQ

Steps:

• Mix beef& sugar, let rest 2 minutes, then add remaining ingredients.
• Toss well and let stand 1 hr at room temp or overnight in the refrigerator to allow the meat to mature- better the longer it marinates!
• Preheat a large, heavy skillet over moderate heat for 2 minutes.
• Add beef, a few slices at a time, and sear without oil for 2-3 minutes at most.
• Or, grill beef in very hot gas or electric broiler.
• Serve immediately with white sticky rice and an assortment of side dishes.

BULGOGI (KOREAN BBQ BEEF)

Steps:

• Blend the marinade ingredients in a mixer or food processor until smooth. Set aside.
• Place the thinly sliced meat in a mixing bowl and pour the marinade over it. Mix them well together while gently massaging the meat with your hands. (Wearing a food prep glove is very handy here!)Add the sesame oil and mix it into the meat. (I prefer adding the sesame oil separately as opposed to mixing it in the marinade sauce. I read somewhere that the oil can prevent the other sauce getting absorbed effectively into the meat.)Cover the bowl with cling wrap (or move the marinated meat into a glass container with a lid) and marinate the meat for at least 4 hours in the fridge. (If you have more time, you can also marinate it overnight to deepen the flavour even more).
• Preheat a skillet / bbq grill on medium high heat until well heated. Add the cooking oil and spread it well. Add the meat (and vegetables) and cook it on medium high to high heat for 3 to 5 mins (until the meat and vegetables cook to your desired doneness). Toss in the sesame seeds and stir them quickly.
• Serve the bulgogi with steamed rice and other Korean side dishes. (refer above for more tips)
