Korean bulgogi burritos - tender soy and sugar marinated beef, charred crisp and wrapped in a burrito with a rainbow of vegetables. A delight for the palate ... and the palette.

Ingredients
For the marinated beef:
- 1/3 cup soy sauce
- 3 tbsp sugar (45g)
- 1 tbsp toasted sesame oil
- 1/4 Asian pear peeled, cored, and coarsely grated (about 1/4 cup; see note)
- 4 cloves garlic minced or grated
- 2 tsp fresh ginger minced or grated (from a 1-inch piece)
- 1 1/2 lb boneless English-style beef short ribs, ribeye, or sirloin very thinly sliced against the grain to no more than 1/8 inch thick
- 3 scallions white and light green parts only, sliced into 2-inch lengths
- 1/4 medium onion halved crosswise, then thinly sliced pole to pole
- 2 tbsp neutral-flavored oil (such as grapeseed or peanut), divided, plus more as needed
For the burritos:
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 tbsp Korean gochujang chili paste
- 4 cups hot cooked short-grain rice
- 4 large flour tortillas (12-inch recommended), warmed
- chopped kimchi
- Danmuji (Korean Pickled Daikon Radish) (see additional recipe)
- 2 cups red cabbage finely shredded (about 1 head)
- 2 cups cilantro leaves
- 3 scallions white and light green parts only, thinly sliced
- Lime wedges for serving
Instructions
For the marinated beef:
- In a large bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil, Asian pear, garlic, and ginger. When sugar has dissolved, add beef, scallion, and onion slices to bowl and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to overnight.
- In a large cast iron or heavy stainless steel skillet, heat 1 tablespoon (15ml) oil over medium-high heat until shimmering. Working in batches, add beef and onions, working quickly to arrange them in a flat, even layer against bottom of skillet; try not to overcrowd pan. Cook on one side for 1 minute, then flip and cook second side until browned and crisp in spots, about 2 minutes longer.
- Transfer cooked beef and onions to a plate and repeat with remaining beef, onions, and oil.
For the burritos:
- In a small bowl, stir together sour cream and gochujang. Spread rice onto warm tortillas, then top with a layer of beef and onions, followed by kimchi, a few pickled daikon radish strips, red cabbage, cilantro, scallions, and gochujang sour cream. Roll tightly, folding sides of tortilla in as you go. (Wrapping the burritos in foil will make them portable and less messy to eat.) Serve with lime wedges.
