Korean barbequed beef, also known as bulgogi, is a popular and delicious dish that originated in Korea. It is typically made with thin slices of marinated beef that are grilled or pan-fried. Bulgogi is often served with a variety of side dishes, such as rice, vegetables, and kimchi. The marinade for bulgogi typically includes soy sauce, garlic, ginger, sesame oil, and pepper. The beef is marinated for several hours or overnight before being cooked. Bulgogi can be cooked on a grill, in a pan, or even in a slow cooker. It is a versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages.

EASY BULGOGI (KOREAN BBQ BEEF)
Most Bulgogi recipes call for crushed pear. This is for tenderizing the meat. My boyfriend's Korean mother says Coca-Cola® can also be used for the same purpose. This recipe uses very thin-sliced meat so tenderization isn't necessary. Sugar is used instead.

KOREAN BARBECUE BEEF, MARINADE 1
Bulgogi is traditionally eaten with white rice and a variety of sides, usually spicy ones. Most important, serve it with fresh red leaf lettuce, thinly sliced raw garlic, and some spicy fresh peppers to make a ssam: holding the lettuce in your palm, make a wrap that envelops the barbecued beef, some rice, the dipping sauce, and, if desired, the vegetables. Feel free to experiment!

Steps:
- 1. Trim the fat off the beef with a knife. Distribute the sugar evenly on the beef by sprinkling it on each piece. Allow beef to sit for 10 minutes.
- 2. In a separate bowl, mix together the soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, sugar, sake, and black pepper. Put aside.
- 3. Massage the beef with the kiwi juice using your hands. The kiwi works as a tenderizer. Add the soy sauce mixture and mix. Allow the beef to marinate for 10 minutes. Because the beef is thin, it doesn't require a long marinating time. Now it is ready to be barbecued. Ideal if grilled over smoked wood but just as good in a frying pan or skillet. Cook until browned, being careful not to overcook.
- 4. Last, to prepare dipping sauce, combine all sauce ingredients and cook over low heat for 15 to 20 minutes. Serve on the side.

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)

- Choose the right cut of beef: Use a tender cut like ribeye, strip loin, or tenderloin. These cuts will remain tender even after being grilled.
- Marinate the beef: Marinating the beef in a mixture of soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil for at least 30 minutes will help to tenderize the beef and infuse it with flavor.
- Cook the beef over high heat: Grilling the beef over high heat will help to create a nice crust on the outside while keeping the inside tender and juicy.

- Serve the beef with your favorite sides: Korean barbequed beef can be served with a variety of sides, such as rice, noodles, vegetables, and kimchi.
