Korean Bulgogi

I'd love a tried and true recipe for this. Does anyone cook Korean? Also might anyone have a Korean Fried Rice recipe that is wonderful.....maybe one with a Hawaiin twist?

My former wine merchant (he lost the lease to his store, alas) has a Korean mother-in-law. She makes killer Bulgogi. I'll see if I can get the recipe, but don't hold your breath.

Thank you, I'd love to have a great recipe.

Karen,

I am Korean-American, and frequently cook Bulgogi in a few different styles. If you message me, I will try to reply with one of the recipes.

Best wishes,
E.Y.

EY,

Please post one or more of the recipes here. I'd love to see them.

Well, I'm not EY, but here's my go-to Bul-Kogi rcp:

2 pounds beef (the best cut available)
1 tbsp sesame seeds (I usually double this)
3 green onions, finely chopped
4 cloves garlic finely minced (I usually double this,too)
1/4 cup plus one tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp sesame oil
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 tbsp sherry or beef stock (I use cream sherry)
Fresh ground black pepper to taste

Slice steak into thin strips
Brown sesame seed over low heat and then grind in a mortar
Combine everything but meat in a bowl then add meat and stir to coat.
Let meat marinade as long as you can, I try for a full day, covered, in the 'fridge.
Grill over charcoal until done - the strips cook fast - I try not to go past 'medium'
Serve over pasta, wide noodles, rice - whatever you like, on warm plates.

This is a very interesting idea to eat bulgogi with pasta.

I would suggest eating the bulgogi definitely with [white, sticky (no talc?)] rice, and put the meat either over a bed of baby greens with vinegarette based dressing or wrap the meat and rice and perhaps a little bit of chili pepper paste in romaine lettuce leaves.

For me, anything that conveys the Bulgogi to my mouth is acceptable. I love the stuff! I will try the romaine lettuce wrap with meat, rice and a little chili pepper paste that you mentioned.
