Beef Bulgogi Lettuce Wraps
60 min · 4 servings
Ingredients
□
□ 1/2 Asian pear, peeled and finely grated
□ 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
□ 1 tbsp packed light brown sugar
□ 3 garlic cloves, finely grated
□ 2 tsp finely grated fresh ginger
□ 1 tbsp toasted sesame oil
□ 4 scallions, thinly sliced, white and green parts separated
□ 1 tsp neutral cooking oil
□ 1 cup thinly sliced daikon radish
□ 1 cup matchstick-cut carrot
□ 1/3 cup rice vinegar
□ 1/2 tsp kosher salt
□ 8 large butter lettuce leaves
□ 2 cups cooked short-grain white rice, warm
□ 1 cup prepared kimchi
□ 1/3 cup prepared ssamjang
□ 1 tsp toasted sesame seeds
Directions
1. Firm beef for 20 minutes, slice paper-thin, then marinate with pear, soy, aromatics, sesame oil, and scallion whites.
2. Quick-pickle daikon and carrot. Dry lettuce, warm rice, and set out kimchi and ssamjang.
3. Heat an oiled skillet on high for 3 minutes; sear beef in 2 uncrowded batches until caramelized.
4. Toss beef for 1 minute with scallion greens and sesame seeds, then build wraps with all the fixings.
Cook’s note: Drain excess marinade and leave space between strips so the beef sears instead of steaming.
