Yesterday we went to Mom’s for a wonderful lesson in Korean cooking. The goal was to learn how to make bulgogi, which is a most scrumptiously marinated, thin, flank-type steak. It’s delicious. We were anxious to learn – Carrie’s gotta know how to make the husband’s comfort food, and Ed enjoys cooking too! In true Korean-mom fashion, she prepared an enormous lunch first before the cooking began – but we certainly weren’t complaining!
Bulgogi ended up being a lot easier to make than we thought…it’s basically onions, sesame oil, soy sauce, sugar, and more green onions! We made so much that mom insisted we take home 2 large tupperware boxes full of individually bagged portions. We’re knee-deep in bulgogi now, so ya’ll come on over and try it before we end up with record setting cholesterol from eating red meat everyday! We had a great time though and we really enjoyed the lesson.
Here is tonight’s dinner:
That’s the bulgogi in the bowl, on top of rice. To the right, we have bindedduk, which are Korean pancakes made out of egg, onions, kimchi and seafood…and the green stuff is our favorite: sauteed spinach.
Look at Ed…so happy!
Carrie feels pretty proud of herself – yum!
