The story behind

I remember making this for the first time on a rainy Sunday. The smell of sesame oil and garlic filled the whole kitchen instantly. It's originally a royal dish from the Goguryeo era, but nowadays, it's the ultimate crowd-pleaser. I love serving it for lunch with a side of steamed rice and some spicy kimchi to kick things up a notch. It’s simple, honest food that never fails.

Instructions

  1. 1
    Whisk together the soy sauce, sugar, garlic, and sesame oil in a large bowl.
  2. 2
    Toss the beef slices in the marinade, making sure every piece is coated, and let it chill for a bit.
  3. 3
    Get your pan screaming hot over high heat with a tiny bit of oil.
  4. 4
    Sauté the meat and veggies together quickly; you want them tender but with a nice sear.
  5. 5
    Finish it off with a sprinkle of sesame seeds and enjoy it while it's steaming hot!
