    Korean-Style BBQ Beef
    Servings: 2-3

    INGREDIENTS
    700 grams rib eye steak, or any other well-marbled, tender cut
    ยฝ onion, cut into chunks
    3 cloves garlic
    ยฝ pear, peeled and cut into chunks
    1 spring onion, cut into chunks
    3 tablespoons brown sugar
    1 teaspoon black pepper
    โ…“ cup soy sauce
    3 tablespoons sesame oil
    ยฝ onion, cut into thin slices
    1 tablespoon canola oil
    2 spring onions, sliced into ยฝ centimeter rounds, to garnish
    1 teaspoon sesame seeds, to garnish
    Rice, to serve
    Korean side dishes (banchan), to serve (optional)

    PREPARATION
    Slice the beef as thinly as you can, then set aside in a large bowl. Having frozen or cold beef makes the slicing easier.
    In a blender or food processor, blend the onion chunks, garlic, pear, spring onion pieces, brown sugar, pepper, soy sauce, and sesame oil until smooth.
    Pour the marinade over the beef, add the onions, then mix evenly. Cover with cling film and marinate for at least 30 minutes in the fridge.
    Heat canola oil in a skillet over high heat.
    Being careful not to crowd the pan, sear the marinated beef and onions until browned, then sprinkle with the spring onions and sesame seeds.
    Serve with the rice and side dishes!

    I've tried, it's delicious! I eat this bbq bulgogi with boiled bok choy, and seasoned baked potatoes & tomatoes. I'm on diet rn. I thought the amount of beef that I prepared is for two people (since we're on diet, so we're used to small portion). Ended up the marinate sauce I prepared is too much ๐Ÿ˜‚ but it's okay tho, I could use the sauce for another time too~! The pear in the ingredients confused me a lot! I've never eat cooked food with a pear before. Turns out it helps in twisted the taste of the beef, a unique flavour ~! I also added 1 tbsp of bottled bbq sauce, just to add the flavour. Also, instead of 3 tablespoons of brown sugar, I only put 1 tbsp in it. The sweet soy sauce & the pear already has sweet flavour, so less sugar is enough. Anyways, thankyou for this recipe! I'll surely recommend to my family & friends too! โ™ฅ๏ธ

    I didn't have a pear but I had apples so I used one of those instead . Honestly, this was one of the easiest, most satisfying dishes I've made in a while. Like, there's nothing easier than throwing a bunch of stuff in a blender, mixing it with meat, and throwing it on a pan. I'm definitely going to start making this more often (with pears next time) and bringing leftovers to work for lunch.

    Just made this, didnโ€™t have sesame oil but still tasted exactly like bulgogi. Super easy and really really tasty. Will be having this often thank you for the recipe.

    I'm trying it tomorrow, I have placed the meat in the marinade in the fridge and leaving it overnight, not sure if I eat it for lunch or dinner yet.
    I'll come back to tell my impressions.

    Also about the pear, I have heard it's used for some enzyme it contains, and the asian pear is the one that should be used, I cannot confirm it but I have heard the european usual pear does not contain that enzyme and if you want it you can replace it with a kiwi, kiwi should have that enzyme even stronger, but it is not forcedly better because Kiwi has a stronger flavour so the asian pear should be best for more neutral flavour and more authentic. Kiwi would just be an alternative solution if we can't find asian pear.
