If you have never tried bulgogi before you really need to. This classic Korean dish is basic, but extremely delicious: thinly sliced beef marinated in a pear-ginger-and-sesame sauce and then grilled to absolute perfection. The sweet, hot, and salty combo is mouthwatering, and what’s more, because the beef has been sliced super-thin, it only takes a couple of minutes to absorb all the flavors.

Method of preparing the beef:
-
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the pear, garlic, soy sauce, ginger, chili flakes, sesame oil, and brown sugar.
-
Add the sliced steak strips to the marinade and toss until well coated. Let it sit for 30 minutes at room temperature.
-
In a large skillet, heat 1 tbsp. oil. Working in batches, place the meat in a single layer into the hot skillet. Allow to brown (without touching) for around 1 minute. Toss and continue to cook the meat until cooked through and edges get crispy.
-
Serve topped with some scallions.
