Korean BBQ

 

 

Gosh I’ve been a terrible blogger lately!

Largely because I’ve been a terrible cook lately.

Not that I’ve been making anything bad, but I’ve been making a lot of the same ol’ same ol’.

So today’s post is something new! Something we’ve never tried making before.

And (confession) something I didn’t make.

This delicious trip to Korea Town comes to you thanks to the hubster.

Korean BBQ is one of those amazing things everyone should experience. Meat and veggies brought to your table; you cook the meat at the table; you hang out with friends; you reek of Korean BBQ for days (in a good way!).

It’s also an amazingly delicious, fresh and healthy dinner option.

Think of it like tacos, but without the tortilla.

Follow me here. Marinated and grilled meat, some fresh veggie toppings, wrapped in a lettuce leaf.

A light and refreshing dinner packed with veggies.

We used hangar steak cut into small pieces then marinated in soy sauce, rice vinegar and garlic. I have no idea the amounts. He just goes for it.

The meat goes in a skillet or a griddle or a grill pan.

So that it gets nice and browned on both sides

Apart from cooking the meat, there is little to do except set up your toppings.

Sliced radishes, shredded carrots, kimchi and bean sprouts were our choices.

Set up taco, assembly line style.

Pile your lettuce cup full of meat and your veggies.
