Ying & Yang Living: Korean "Bulgogi" Rib Eye Barbecue wrapped in Red Lettuce Recipe

By Moon Cho




"Bulgogi" is one of the well known and very popular Korean barbecue dishes, which have become an international sensation. Whatever is your preference, you can grill beef, pork chicken or fish. Both children and adults love this dish. Here is a very simple recipe you can make in your own home without having to run to the Asian market.

Ingredients:

* Rib eye meat (1 lbs. sliced paper thin in 3-4 inch diameter, please ask your butcher to make think slices if you can not find it in the meat section already prepared) * Sake (1/2 cup) * Soy sauce (1/2 cup) * Sugar (2 tablespoons) * Sesame oil (2 tablespoons) * Garlic (4 cloves sliced) * Onion (1 medium sliced into 2 inches) * Carrot (sliced into 3 inch thread pieces) * Red Lettuce (2 heads) * Black Pepper

Directions:

1) Pepper the rib eye. Next, make the marinade for the meat. In a small bowl, add sake, soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil, and garlic, and mix well so all the marinade is well integrated. Marinade meet for few hours or even over night is OK.

2) Grill the meat indoors or outdoors. Due to the thinness of the meat, it will grill very quickly on each side, so do not leave the grill. After all meat is grilled, then put it aside.

3) Next, grill the onions until they start to get golden brown but they are still crunchy.

4) For eating preparation, take one lettuce, place a piece of meat, some onion and carrots into the lettuce. Wrap lettuce around like a gift, and it is ready to eat.

Rice can be served on the side.
