Bulgogi is the one of the most popular dishes in Korea, and one which Westerners find very pleasing. It is often served as an appetizer or main course with lettuce and other ingredients to be wrapped and eaten. Occasionally, a pancake is used in place of lettuce leaves, making this the Korean version of the taco.
Bulgogi literally means “fire beef,” but it is generally translated as “Korean barbecue.” Thin, tender slices of beef are marinated in a sauce made with soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, and other seasonings, and then cooked over a hot charcoal grill at your table.
