Asian Recipe ⊷ Bulgogi (Korean Barbecued Beef)

Marinated beef strips and vegetables are barbecued or broiled. Best served over rice, with egg rolls and Korean cucumber salad (from this site)!!

Ingredients

• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon white sugar
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
• ¼ teaspoon monosodium glutamate (MSG)
• 1 pound beef top sirloin, thinly sliced
• 1 carrot, julienned
• 1 green onion, chopped
• ½ yellow onion, chopped

Cooking Directions

1. 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.
2. 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.
3. Place on grill, and cook for 15 to 20 minutes, or to desired doneness.
