Tomorrow Is A Gift
Boast not of tomorrow, for you know not what any day
may bring forth. ~ Proverbs Ch:277 Vs:1


Many things we need can wait The child cannot. Now is the time his bones
are being formed, his blood is being made, his mind is being developed.
To him we can-not say tomorrow. His name is today.~Gabriella Minstral

Korean Pulgogi


Pulgogi ( Barbecued Beef )

Aside from kimich pulgogi is probably Korea's best-known dish. In Korea, it is cooked on a dome-shaped charcoal grill, but any grill will do. And I often cook it in a well oiled skillet. Pulgogi is thin stripes of spicy beef, but pork may be substituted for the beef. It can be served over rice, in kim wrappers (seaweed wrappers) or wrapped in lettuce (as shown) with rice. Many supermarkets today carry beef that states 'for pulgogi' written on the wrapper. I like to fry the pieces individually and flip them individually. They come out better that way.
*Pulgoki can be stuffed between lettuce leaves or 'Kim' (seaweed wrappers)

4 tbsp. soy sauce
2 tbsp. sesame seed oil
2 tbsp. sugar
1/2 tsp. black pepper
1 clove garlic, peeled & finely chopped
4 tbsp. finely chopped green onion
1 tbsp. toasted sesame seeds
1 1/2 lbs. Sirloin tip, thinly sliced into 1/2" pieces
12 romaine lettuce leaves (optional)
1 cup cooked rice (optional)
1/8 tsp. cayenne pepper (optional)

1) Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and mix with the beef slices.
2) Cover tightly and refrigerate 1 - 2 hours.
3) Preheat skillet or grill and cook over high heat for 2-3 minutes, cooking and flipping each piece.
4) Place in oven proof serving dish where you can keep warm on low heat in over until all meat is cooked.
