What is Korean Beef Bulgogi?
Bulgogi (불고기) translates to “fire meat” in Korean. Traditionally, it’s thinly sliced beef marinated in a mixture of soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, sugar, and other spices, then grilled or stir-fried. This Korean Beef Bulgogi Bowl serves up the classic flavors over steamed rice and is often topped with kimchi, pickled veggies, or a soft-boiled egg.
