Korean Beef Bulgogi Skewers Recipes

Steps:

• Put the steak in the freezer for 30 mins - it will firm up and be much easier to slice thinly. Meanwhile, make a marinade. Put the soy, sugar, mirin, ginger, garlic, pineapple, chilli flakes and oil in a food processor. Blitz until smooth, then pour into a bowl.
• When the meat is semi-frozen, thinly slice into 25 pieces and add to the marinade. Chill until ready to use, but don't leave for longer than 2 hrs or the pineapple juice will break down the meat too much.
• Meanwhile, soak small wooden skewers in water for 10 mins. When ready to serve, thread a piece of meat onto each skewer. Heat a griddle pan, or frying pan, and brown skewers for 1-2 mins each side or until grill marks appear. Add a little more oil to the pan if needed.
• Mix together the dipping sauce ingredients in a small bowl. Serve the skewers with lettuce, sesame seeds, spring onions and dipping sauce.

Steps:

• In a large resealable plastic bag, combine soy sauce, sesame oil, sesame seeds, garlic, sugar, salt, black pepper, and MSG. Place beef, carrots, and onions in the bag; seal, and shake to coat the vegetables and beef with the sauce. Refrigerate for at least 2 1/2 hours. I prefer to marinate mine overnight.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat. Remove meat and vegetables from marinade, and place on a large sheet of aluminum foil; seal. Discard marinade.
• Place on grill, and cook for 15 to 20 minutes, or to desired doneness.

Steps:

• Combine yellow onion, white and light green parts of green onions, soy sauce, sugar, sesame seeds, garlic, sesame oil, red pepper flakes, ginger, and black pepper in a bowl until marinade is well mixed. Add steak slices to marinade; cover and refrigerate, 1 hour to 1 day.
• Heat a skillet over medium heat. Working in batches, cook and stir steak and marinade together in the hot skillet, adding honey to caramelize the steak, until steak is cooked through, about 5 minutes. Garnish bulgogi with green parts of green onions.

Steps:

• Toast the sesame seeds in a frying pan over medium heat until brown, let them cool.
• Cut the beef in thin slices.
• Mix all marinade ingredients together, add also the sesame seeds, and to this add the beef.
• Leave to marinate at least 30 minutes, a few hours is preferred.
• Thread the meat on wooden skewers, grill or barbecue a few minutes on each side, using the remaining marinade for basting.
