Main Ingredients- 500g Bulgogi-cut Beef
- 1/2 Green Onion
- 4 cloves Garlic
- 1 Onion
- 1/5 Carrot
- 2 Shiitake Mushrooms
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Prepare 500g of beef for Bulgogi. Pat it dry thoroughly with paper towels to remove any excess blood. This step is crucial for a clean taste and to prevent any gamey odors.
Step 2
In a bowl with the beef, add 2 tablespoons of sugar, 1 tablespoon of corn syrup, and 1 tablespoon of minced garlic. Gently mix and massage the ingredients into the meat. Let it marinate for 10 to 20 minutes. The sugar helps to tenderize the meat.
Step 3
While the meat is marinating, prepare the vegetables. Slice the green onion diagonally. Slice or mince the garlic cloves. Cut the onion into thin slices. Slice the carrot thinly. Remove the stems from the shiitake mushrooms and slice them. Adding a variety of vegetables enhances the texture and flavor.
Step 4
Add 4 tablespoons of soy sauce, 3 tablespoons of sesame oil, and a pinch of black pepper to the marinated beef. Mix well. Then, add all the prepared vegetables and mushrooms to the bowl and mix everything together thoroughly, ensuring the marinade coats all ingredients evenly.
Step 5
Heat a pan over high heat. Add the marinated bulgogi and stir-fry quickly. It’s important to keep stirring to prevent the meat from burning. Finally, add 1 tablespoon of MSG (if using) and stir-fry for another moment to boost the umami flavor. Enjoy your delicious Bulgogi!
