Korean BBQ Beef (Bulgogi) - the easy way

Prepare the following ingredients:

• 6-8 cloves of garlic
• Jar of Korean BBQ Beef marniation sauce (bulgogi yang-nyom)
• 4-6 pounds of thinly sliced beef (sogogi)
  

Note: Try to pick the beef up from the same Korean grocery store you get the marination sauce from; they will probably have high quality shaved beef labelled as "Sliced Bulgogi Beef". Otherwise try to get a very low fat cut of beef and slice it as thin as possible.

First, mince the garlic with a sharp knife. Then pour the marination sauce into a large container and add the minced garlic. Stir the combination to distribute the garlic in the sauce.




Take a slice of beef and dip both sides in the marinade so that it is well coated. The beef should pick up some pieces of garlic in the process.





Now lay the coated slice of beef at the bottom of a large sealable container. Repeat this process until all of the beef has been deposited in the container. Pour any marinade left over the beef.




Seal the container and store in the fridge overnight to let the beef absorb the flavour.






After the beef has marinated overnight, fry it in a cast iron pan. Do not add any oil because the marinade contains sesame oil already. Cook until the meat takes on a brown glossy appearance, but don't cook so long that it turns dark and dry.


Enjoy with a side of sticky rice, kimchi, and bean sprouts.
