Korean Beef Bulgogi (Korean BBQ) 불고기



I am love trying different Korean recipes. I want to make the best of my time here in South Korea. Everything that I have made so far has been really good. I am learning what the staples are in Korean cooking: Sesame oil, Soy Sauce, Garlic, Onion, Green Onion, Sugar,and Gochujang (red pepper paste) depending on the recipe. I picked a recipe from my favorite Korean cooking Youtube channel, aerieskitchen http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GtVEasGxGpM&feature=relmfu . If you haven't check out her channel yet, you should really go take a look and try some of the recipes.


Meat Ingredients:

  • 3 Cups Beef (Sirloin)
  • 1 Onion
  • ½ Carrot

Sauce Ingredients:

Directions:

  • Cut 3 cups of beef thinly
  • Julienne 2 carrots or 1/2 big carrot, mince 1½ Tbsp garlic, & chop the green onion
  • Slice the onion
  • In a bowl, combine: 6 Tbsp of soy sauce, 3 Tbsp of sugar, 3 Tbsp of Asian pear juice, 3 Tbsp of cooking wine, 3 Tbsp of green onion, 1½ Tbsp of garlic, 1 Pinch of ginger powder, 1 Tbsp of sesame seeds, ¼ tsp of black pepper, and 1 Tbsp of sesame oil. Mix everything together
  • In a large bowl, combine meat and sauce mixture together
  • Cover it with plastic wrap or put it in a container with a lid. Keep the container in the refrigerator for at least half a day or overnight
  • The next day, cook the marinated beef in a pan on medium-high heat, until the beef has completely cooked
Serve with rice or wrap in leaf lettuce.

Enjoy!
