Even though red meat is not supposed to be eaten daily, it represents an excellent source of zinc, iron, protein and many other compounds that are very healthy if you consume them every once in a while. Beef, if prepared properly, offers a fantastic flavor and a joint of beef can be enough for a big family meal. Let’s be honest, there is nothing better than a big family meal on Sunday afternoon.
Now, if you are a fan of beef, you probably heard about dishes such as Beef Wellington, Beef Stroganoff or Beef Curry. These are all very famous recipes. However, there is a new rising star among the tasty beef dishes. It is called Korean Beef Bulgogi and you will love it. Some call it bulgogi or purukogi and this is a mistake. You should have in mind that Korean is a very difficult language for English speakers and mistakes like these are very common. So, if we are talking about the traditional sesame Korean grill dish, we are talking about beef bulgogi.
Basic Bulgogi
For the basic bulgogi recipe, you need to cut the meat into thin strips so that the meat can absorb the tasty marinade in minutes instead of hours. Then mix the garlic, sugar, pear, ginger, sesame oil, and soy sauce into a large or a medium bowl. This makes the bulgogi marinade. After this, you mix it all together and squish everything surrounding until the meat is evenly coated. Then, let it rest in your fridge for up to eight hours, or at room temperature for 30 minutes.
You should heat one tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large frying pan until oil is glimmering. Take half of the meat from your marinade and season it lightly with some salt. Cook it in a single layer for about sixty seconds until it becomes lightly browned. Continue tossing your meat from time to time until it becomes cooked and crisp. This should take about three minutes. Put the cooked meat on a plate and repeat the process with some more oil, salt and the rest of your meat.Once it’s ready to serve, garnish the meat with some scallions on top. If you like eating rice, you can combine the two and enjoy a happy marriage of rice and meat. A famous Korean dish, it is very popular throughout Asia.
