Ingredients needed 🛒3 servings
- beef (flat iron steak) 350g (or top blade)
- onion 1/4
- green onion 1 stalk
- minced garlic 1 tbsp
- soy sauce 2 tbsp
- starch 2 tbsp
- egg wash 2 tbsp
- sugar 2 tbsp
- oyster sauce 2 tbsp
- mirin 3 tbsp
- ground pepper a pinch
- cooking oil 4 tbsp
Recipe 🍳
- Marinate the beef with 1 tbsp soy sauce, mixing well for the first seasoning.
- To the marinated beef, add 2 tbsp starch, 2 tbsp egg wash, and 2 tbsp cooking oil in order, mixing well to coat the surface.
- In a bowl, mix 2 tbsp sugar, 2 tbsp oyster sauce, 1 tbsp soy sauce, 3 tbsp mirin, and a pinch of ground pepper to make the sauce.
- Cut the onion into strips along the grain, and slice the green onion into large chunks.
- Heat 2 tbsp oil in a pan until very hot, then add the coated beef and stir-fry quickly until no red color remains; remove and set aside.
- Add a little more oil to the pan, stir-fry the green onion and onion, then add the prepared sauce and 1 tbsp minced garlic, bringing to a boil.
- When the vegetables are cooked and the sauce comes together, add the reserved beef and quickly stir-fry over high heat to finish.
- Coat the beef with soy sauce, starch, egg wash, and oil.
- Make the sauce with sugar, oyster sauce, soy sauce, mirin, and pepper.
- Stir-fry the beef first in a hot pan, then remove. Stir-fry the green onion and onion.
- When vegetables are cooked, add the sauce and garlic, then return the beef and quickly stir-fry.
Cooking tips 💡
- Coating the beef with oil and starch makes even lean, thinly sliced bulgogi meat very tender.
- If the stir-fry tastes bland, don't add salt; instead, add just a little more oyster sauce for better flavor.
