Beef Bulgogi Wraps

Ingredients

• Tortillas or wraps (4 large)
• Sesame seeds (2 tablespoons, toasted)
• Green onions (2, thinly sliced)
• Cucumber (1, julienned)
• Carrots (1, julienned)
• Lettuce leaves (4 large, preferably romaine or iceberg)
• Vegetable oil (2 tablespoons)
• Brown sugar (1 tablespoon)
• Ginger (1 tablespoon, grated)
• Garlic (3 cloves, minced)
• Sesame oil (2 tablespoons)
• Soy sauce (1/4 cup)
• Beef sirloin (1 pound, thinly sliced against the grain)

Instructions

1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, and brown sugar to create the marinade.
2. Add the sliced beef to the marinade, ensuring all pieces are well-coated. Cover and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or overnight for deeper flavor.
3. Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
4. Add the marinated beef to the skillet, cooking for 3-4 minutes or until the beef is cooked through and slightly caramelized. Remove from heat and set aside.
5. To assemble the wraps, lay a lettuce leaf on top of each tortilla or wrap.
6. Layer the cooked beef over the lettuce, then add the julienned carrots, sliced cucumber, and green onions.
7. Sprinkle the toasted sesame seeds over the top and drizzle with additional marinade if desired.
8. Roll the wrap tightly, securing with toothpicks if necessary to hold everything in place.
9. Repeat with the remaining ingredients and serve immediately for the best taste.
