KOREAN BULGOGI BOLOGNESE



Korean Bulgogi Bolognese image

In this recipe, Korean grilled barbecue meets Bolognese, the classic Italian meat sauce. Ground beef is simmered in a sauce that starts with a traditional base of sautéed onion, carrots and celery, to which scallions, garlic, ginger and soy sauce are added. As the sauce cooks, the flavors of the tomato paste and soy sauce meld, creating a deeply salty-sweet mixture, while the addition of chopped mushrooms provides depth and complexity. Be sure to use egg pasta here as the richness contrasts nicely with the sauce.

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 tablespoons safflower or canola oil
1 cup finely chopped onion
1 cup finely chopped carrot
1 cup finely chopped celery
7 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons peeled, minced ginger
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 pound ground beef
4 ounces white button mushrooms, finely chopped (about 2 cups)
3/4 cup finely chopped scallions
3/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup turbinado sugar
Kosher salt and black pepper
12 ounces dried egg pasta (tagliatelle or pappardelle)
Freshly grated Parmesan, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add onion and cook, stirring, until softened, 3 minutes. Add carrot and celery and cook for 5 minutes. Stir in garlic, ginger and tomato paste and cook until caramelized, 2 to 3 minutes, lowering the heat as necessary to avoid burning. Return heat to medium.
  • Add beef, mushrooms and 1/2 cup of the scallions and cook, stirring to break up the beef, until beef is browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Add soy sauce, sugar and 1/4 cup of water and bring to a simmer. Cover and simmer gently over low heat, stirring occasionally, until sauce has thickened, 30 minutes. Stir in remaining 1/4 cup scallions and season with pepper.
  • As sauce cooks, make the pasta: Bring a large pot of well-salted water to boil. Cook pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain.
  • Divide pasta in bowls and top with Bolognese. Serve with Parmesan.

EASY BULGOGI (KOREAN BBQ BEEF)



Easy Bulgogi (Korean BBQ Beef) image

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.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the bolognese will be. Look for fresh, flavorful vegetables and high-quality ground beef.
  • Brown the beef in small batches: This will help to prevent the beef from overcrowding the pan and steaming instead of browning.
  • Cook the sauce low and slow: The longer you cook the sauce, the more flavor it will develop. Simmer the sauce for at least 2 hours, or even longer if you have time.
  • Add a splash of Korean BBQ sauce: This will give the bolognese a slightly sweet and smoky flavor that is sure to please everyone.
  • Serve the bolognese over your favorite pasta: Spaghetti, penne, and rigatoni are all great choices.
