Instructions

1

Blend Pear Base

5 Minuten

Peel and core the Asian pear and cut into rough chunks. Place in a blender together with garlic and ginger and blend into a fine puree.

2

Combine Marinade

3 Minuten

Transfer pear puree to a bowl and stir in soy sauce, sesame oil and brown sugar. Mix well until the sugar has completely dissolved.

3

Finishing

3 Minuten

Slice spring onions into fine rings and stir into the marinade together with the toasted sesame seeds. Taste – it should be sweet-savoury and aromatic.

4

Marinating and Grilling

1–2 Stunden

Place thinly sliced beef in the bulgogi marinade and refrigerate for 1–2 hours. Then sear quickly over high heat on the grill or in a pan.

Pro Tip

Use Asian pear (Nashi) – it contains natural enzymes that tenderise the meat. Alternatively, kiwi or pineapple also work well.
