Notes
- Nutritional information does not include rice.
- To easily slice the beef thinly, freeze it for about 15 - 20 minutes first, then carefully slice it against the grain.
- Keep in mind to not overcrowd the beef while cooking, so take your time and cook it in 2 - 3 batches until you get through all the meat.
- If you don't have mirin or can't find it, rice vinegar or a dry white wine will work as well.
- Leftover beef bulgogi, can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.You can also freeze in single portions in airtight containers or freezer bags for up to 3 months. Just reheat in the microwave or oven straight from the freezer.
