Korean Bulgogi Beef recipe

Korean Bulgogi Beef recipe

Ingredients

for the bulgogi sauce:

300ml Soy sauce
1 medium Apple
1 Asian Pear (use 2 normal pears if Asian pears are not available)
1 medium onion
5 cloves of Garlic

Instructions

Put all the ingredients into a blender, I whisk until the veg and fruit are very small. Then keep the sauce into jars.

The bubbles will set in a short time, this sauce can be kept in the fridge for several weeks, and used in my other recipes instead of soy sauce, alternatively you can marinate most meats and cook for a great tasting meal.


To make the beef dish I use about 350g of beef for 2-3 people. Thin sliced is best (2-3mm) I ask my butcher for sliced feather-blade, but cubed beef is good, and can be cut in to smaller pieces very easily.

I add a thin sliced carrot, half an onion sliced and 3 mushrooms, I pop this all in to bowl and add about 5 tablespoons of the sauce from the jars followed by a tea to a tablespoon of honey.

I mix this all together and put into a freezer bag then into the fridge to marinate overnight. (You don't need to, but I feel it improves the flavour. If you are short of time I recommend a minimum of 30 minutes to marinate.)

The next day put some oil in a pan, and empty the bag in to the hot pan, fry until well cooked and serve on a plate.

This Bulgogi recipe is best eaten with Rice, Salad and some side dishes. You can make lettuce wraps like the picture below, simply add rice and meat to a piece of lettuce, add some ssamjang if you have any. And Enjoy, you could make lettuce wraps with most Korean Main dishes.

Very Delicious and really easy to make, Go on give it a go and tell me what you think!

Filipino Style Spaghetti cooking tips:

Don’t overcook the spaghetti. Perfectly cooked spaghetti is al dente–“to the tooth”–which means that it will resist slightly when you bite into it. One way to tell is if it sticks to your refrigerator without falling off.
Feel free to experiment! Other additions are mushrooms, prawns, bell peppers, zucchini, eggplant.

Indian-style beef burgers recipe

Indian-style beef burgers recipe
Makes four/ (150-g) burgers or eight 3-oz (80-g) sliders Preparation 10 minutes Cooking 10 minutes.

Ingredients

1½ lb (750 g) lean ground beef
1 onion, ˝nely chopped
2 teaspoons minced ginger
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons ground coriander
½ teaspoon Asian chili powder or
ground cayenne pepper
2 teaspoons salt
2 fresh green chili peppers,
deseeded and minced
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
¼ cup (10 g) fresh coriander leaves
(cilantro), chopped
¼ cup (2 g) fresh mint leaves,
chopped
Oil, for brushing the burgers
4 hamburger buns or 8 slider buns

Instructions

1 Place the meat in a bowl. Add the onion, ginger, cumin, coriander, Asian chili powder, salt, chili and lemon juice, and mix well with your hands, turning, mashing and

kneading to blend the ˚avors and to get a smooth texture. Cover and refrigerate the mixture for at least an hour.

2 Mix in the fresh coriander and mint leaves. With wet hands, mold the mixture into 4 equal-size patties or, to create sliders, 8 equal-size patties. Refrigerate the patties at least for 1 hour.

3 To grill the patties: Preheat the grill to high. Lightly oil the grate with vegetable oil—pour oil onto a paper towel, then hold the towel with tongs to wipe the oil onto the grate. Place the patties on the grill directly over the heat. Cook about
2 to 3 minutes per side for medium doneness, brushing with oil to prevent sticking, turning once.

4 While the meat is cooking, prepare the rolls. Slice and toast the bread on the grill. Serve the patties sandwiched between the bun halves.
Tip Do not press down on the patties with a spatula during cooking—this only squeezes out the juices and dries out the meat.
