Beef Bulgogi

This classic Beef Bulgogi is a standout choice for anyone seeking a high-protein meal that does not compromise on deep, savoury flavour. The secret to this Korean favourite lies in the marinade, where grated Asian pear and ginger act as natural tenderisers for the beef sirloin. When seared in a hot frying pan, the sugar caramelises slightly, creating those signature charred edges that pair perfectly with the umami-rich soy and toasted sesame oil.

Ideal for a nutritious mid-week dinner or a social weekend feast, these beef wraps are served in crisp lettuce leaves for a fresh, crunchy contrast. By adding fermented kimchi, earthy enoki mushrooms, and a touch of spicy bean paste, you create a balanced dish that is as healthy as it is satisfying. Serve alongside steaming white rice for a truly authentic homemade experience.

How to make Beef Bulgogi

In large bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil, mirin, pear, onion, garlic, ginger, sesame seeds, and pepper. Let marinade stand 30 minutes at room temperature, then add beef and toss to coat. Refrigerate, covered, 1 hour.

In large skillet over moderately high heat, heat oil. Remove beef from marinade, draining it very briefly over bowl to remove excess liquid, and then cook until browned and done medium-well, 6 to 7 minutes.

Remove beef from heat and serve by filling each lettuce leaf with about 2 tablespoons Korean sticky rice, small handful of beef, 1 tablespoon kimchi, about 8 enoki mushrooms, and about 1/2 teaspoons hot bean paste. Serve immediately.
