Ingredients

  • 500 grams Beef ribeye or sirloin, thinly sliced
  • 60 ml Soy sauce
  • 50 grams Brown sugar
  • 1 medium Asian pear, grated
  • 1 medium Onion, grated
  • 3 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
  • 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
  • 2 stalks Green onions, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon Toasted sesame seeds
  • 8 pieces Lettuce leaves (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, mix soy sauce, brown sugar, grated Asian pear, grated onion, minced garlic, grated ginger, sesame oil, and ground black pepper to make the marinade.

Step 2

Add the thinly sliced beef to the marinade and mix well to ensure that each piece is covered. Cover the bowl and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or up to overnight for better flavor.

Heat a large pan or grill over medium-high heat.

Once hot, add the beef slices to the pan in batches, making sure not to overcrowd. Grill each side for about 2-3 minutes or until cooked to your desired level of doneness.

Step 5

Remove the cooked beef from the pan and continue grilling the remaining beef.

Step 6

Once all the beef is cooked, sprinkle the toasted sesame seeds and chopped green onions over the top.

Step 7

Serve the Dairy-Free Korean BBQ Beef Bulogi with fresh lettuce leaves or over cooked rice, if desired.
