Bulgolgi – Korean barbeque

April 25, 2016 by Leland Buck Leave a Comment

Bulgolgi - Korean barbeque

My fascination with simple Korean food continues. After that last post about simple Korean-style beef bowls, I decided to try something a bit more traditional, like Bulgolgi – Korean barbeque. I was expecting it to be more complicated that is was, In fact, this is another really simple, easy to prepare dinner. The most time consuming part is slicing beef and allowing enough time to marinade. I marinaded the beef for about 3 hours which was good, but the next time I prepare it, I’m going to let it marinade for a whole day.

It is also worth mentioning that most versions of this recipe I’ve seen call for rib eye, which is a cut I find way too fatty. I opted for a leaner (but more expensive) sirloin cut, and I was very pleased with the result.

As with almost all Korean dishes, serve with white rice, kimchi and a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds.
