Bulgogi - Janete GuardiaBelow is the recipe for Bulgogi (thinly sliced meat) and Kalbi (short ribs): 2 lbs meat (you can increase this to 3 lbs) 4 cloves garlic, mashed 4 Tbs sugar (you can add a bit more if you want it sweeter) 4 green onions, chopped (again, you can add a few more) 1 Tbs sesame oil (you don't have to put this in, or you can decrease it) 1 Tbs roasted sesame seeds 1/2 C soy sauce Pepper to taste (a few shakes) I usually mix all the ingredients, then add the meat to marinate. Marinate for 1-2 hours. You can broil the kalbi (the shortribs) for about 10-15 minutes. It also tastes great on the barbecue. The bulgogi meat can be cooked on very high heat. Put about a tablespoon of sesame seed oil in the skillet, let it heat up (high or med high) and then throw in the meat. Keep the meat moving in the pan (like you are stir frying it). If you don't like the taste of sesame that much, use regular oil. You really should use something because the meet is so thin that it usually ends up sticking to non-stick pans if you don't use some kind of oil. I wouldn't try cooking the bulgogi meat on the barbecue. It's usually too thin for that even with a special grill. Note: to grill this use either an electric griddle or a table top barbecue set found at Korean markets (very affordable), and the meat as well can be purchased already thinly sliced, which cuts down on the preparation time. eggnog - Lutenburgersok, not a guardia, but as close as it gets !
