This Korean bulgogi comes with a twist... Just like our gochujang! Adding the apple in to the marinade works beautifully with the apple syrup in the gochujang. Sweet, tangy and a little spicy. A perfect side dish to share which is not only pretty to look at, but is also delicious and juicy!

Marinating the meat

1. Put the peeled ginger, garlic and apple in a blender/food processor until it’s a puree.
2. Pour it in to a container and mix in the other ingredients for the marinade, except for the meat.
3. Cut off any bone from the meat and slice it in to thin strips.
4. Add the meat in to the container with the marinade and make sure that all pieces are covered.
5. Leave it to marinate for at least 45min, but preferably 3 hours.

Cooking the kale and the meat

1. Cut the apple in to 1 by 1 cm chunks.
2. Mince the garlic and ginger
3. Heat up a pan on medium heat and add both the 1 tbs of neutral oil and the sesame oil. Once the oil is hot, add the ginger and the garlic to the pan.
4. When the garlic and ginger turn golden, add salt and pepper to taste and cook until the kale wilts a little, this takes about 3-4 minutes.
5. When the kale is done, take it out of the pan and put it on a plate.
6. Heat the pan up again with another tbs of oil on medium heat.
7. Add the meat and cook until it’s almost done, this takes about 4-6 minutes.
8. Add in the apple and cook another 3 minutes.

Serve

1. Put the meat on the kale
2. Serve with Oh Na Mi Original Kimchi, roasted sesame seeds and spring onion.
3. Optional is to serve it with some rice.

Troubleshooting & tips

1. Why do I have to marinate it for 3 hours? - Marinating will give the meat the chance to soak up the flavors of the marinade.
2. I don’t have a blender! - You can also chop it really fine. Cut small chunks and smash it with the blade of your knife before chopping it really small, it releases more juice!
