Korean Bulgogi

• 700g ribeye or sirloin, very thinly sliced
• 4 tbsp soy sauce
• 2 tbsp sesame oil
• 2 tbsp brown sugar
• 1/2 Asian pear or kiwi, grated
• 4 garlic cloves, minced
• 1cm ginger, grated
• 2 green onions, sliced
• 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
• Lettuce leaves, rice, and kimchi to serve

Instructions

1. 1

   Combine soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, grated pear, garlic, and ginger. Mix well.

2. 2

   Add sliced beef and toss to coat. Marinate at least 30 minutes, ideally 2 hours.

3. 3

   Heat a cast-iron grill pan or BBQ over very high heat.

4. 4

   Cook beef in batches, 1-2 minutes per side. Don't overcrowd — you want caramelization, not steaming.

5. 5

   Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds.

6. 6

   Serve wrapped in lettuce leaves with rice and kimchi.
