Instructions
1
Prep
Slice the beef sirloin thin against the grain, mince the garlic, grate the pear, and slice the scallion.
2
Marinate
Toss the beef with soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, pear and black pepper. Cover and refrigerate 30 minutes.
3
Sear
Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over high heat until shimmering. Add beef in a single layer and sear 2 to 3 minutes per side until deeply browned and cooked through.
4
Rest
Transfer beef to a plate and let rest 2 minutes so juices redistribute.
5
Build
Arrange lettuce leaves on a plate. Spoon rice into the center of each leaf, top with beef, ssamjang, scallion and sesame seeds.
6
Plate
Fold or wrap each lettuce leaf around its filling and arrange on a plate to eat by hand.
