JEYUK BOKKEUM (SPICY PORK BULGOGI WITH PEARS)

Steps:

• Combine the meat, scallions, and onion in a medium bowl.
• Combine the marinade ingredients in a small bowl, mixing together well, and pour over the meat.
• Mix everything together well - I find this works best with your hands. Cover and let stand an hour. (If it will stand longer, place in the refrigerator).
• Grill or pan grill. If using a skillet, put a little neutral oil and sesame oil in the heated skillet. Do not crowd the meat, as it will then steam - cook in batches. Cook until the meat is a bit caramelized - perhaps 5 or 6 minutes.
• Serve with lettuce, rolling the cooked mixture into the leaves. I like Boston or another leafy lettuce for this, as it rolls easily, but romaine works, too.

Steps:

• Add the meat, onion and green onions and mix well so that all of the meat is coated. Let marinate for at least an hour.
• Heat a grill pan or a skillet over medium high heat and add the pork slices, cooking until it the pork is cooked through and slightly caramelized, turning once. (Do this in batches if necessary - do not crowd the pan).
• Serve with lettuce leaves. - wrap the pork morsels in a lettuce leaf and enjoy!

SPICY PORK BULGOGI

Steps:

• Cut the pork down the middle (in half) and add to a bowl with the lemon-lime soda. Allow to soak for at least 10 minutes. Drain out the soda.
• Put the 1/2 onion, garlic, ginger, green onion and pineapple in a blender and blend on medium low. Pour into the bowl with the pork and add the gochujang, sugar, mirin, soy sauce, Korean fine chili powder and sesame oil. Allow the pork to marinate for 12 hours.
• Heat up a pan and add vegetable oil. Lay the pork carefully in the pan (don't pile the pork--make sure every piece is touching the pan). Cook until the meat is firm, about 15 minutes. Add a touch of salt, sliced onions and thinly sliced carrots (matchstick.) Then, cook for another 5 to 10 minutes.
