Bulgogi Beef

Wrap Ingredients

Method

Marinating the Beef

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, chopped green onions, and black pepper. Stir until the sugar is dissolved.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Beef

    Slice the beef sirloin into thin strips and add to the marinade. Ensure the beef is well-coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours for maximum flavor.

Cooking the Beef

  1. 3

    Cook the Beef

    Heat a large skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated beef strips in a single layer. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until the beef is cooked through and caramelized. Remove from heat.

Assembling the Wraps

  1. 4

    Prepare the Wraps

    On a clean surface, lay out the iceberg lettuce leaves. Place a few strips of the cooked bulgogi beef in the center of each leaf.

  2. 5

    Add Toppings

    Top the beef with shredded crab meat, chopped cilantro, and sliced avocado. Drizzle with sweet soy sauce and add a spoonful of spicy mayo.

  3. 6

    Wrap and Serve

    Carefully fold the sides of the lettuce leaf over the filling and roll it up tightly. Serve immediately while fresh.
