Beef Bulgogi Bowl
Recipe & Image by The Modern Proper
Serves 4
Bulgogi:
- 2 Top Sirloin Steaks
- 4 garlic cloves
- 4 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 tablespoons sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 4-5 green onions, white and light green parts only, thinly sliced
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
For the bowl:
- 4 cups white rice, cooked
- 1 cup English cucumber, thinly sliced
- 1 carrot ribboned
- 4 soft boiled egg
- 1 cup kimchi
- 4 tablespoons sriracha mayo
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced
- sesame seeds
Directions:
- To cut the beef, start with the meat partially frozen. Cut down the center of the steaks. Turn all pieces of meat so their cut sides are on the cutting board, then thinly slice against the grain into ⅛ inch pieces.
- In a large bowl mix the garlic cloves, brown sugar, sesame oil, soy sauce, green onions, salt and pepper. Toss with the beef and let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes, or chill up to 8 hours.
- Heat a grill or large skillet (with neutral oil) set over high heat, and cook the meat. This step does not take long, because the meat is so thin.
- Divide the rice, vegetables, soft boiled eggs, kimchi and bulgogi into 4 bowls.
- Top with sriracha mayo, green onions, sesame seeds.
