Bulgogi Wraps are a deliciously healthy Korean dish featuring marinated beef, fresh vegetables, and a savory sauce, all wrapped in a crisp lettuce leaf. This dish combines the rich flavors of traditional bulgogi with the freshness of vegetables for a light yet satisfying meal.

Ingredients

• 300g beef sirloin - thinly sliced
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 2 cloves garlic - minced
• 1 teaspoon ginger - grated
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
• 1 tablespoon gochujang (Korean chili paste)
• 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
• 1 carrot - julienned
• 1 cucumber - julienned
• 4 green onions - chopped
• 1 cup cooked brown rice
• 1 head of butter lettuce - leaves separated

Steps

1. In a mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, minced garlic, grated ginger, rice vinegar, and gochujang to create the marinade.
2. Add the sliced beef to the marinade, ensuring all pieces are coated. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
3. In a skillet over medium-high heat, add the marinated beef and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beef is cooked through.
4. Once the beef is cooked, stir in the sesame seeds and remove from heat.
5. To assemble the wraps, place a scoop of cooked brown rice on a butter lettuce leaf, followed by the cooked bulgogi, and top with julienned carrots, cucumbers, and chopped green onions.
6. Wrap the lettuce around the filling and serve immediately.
