Ruth McCartney's Beef Bulgogi with a Twist

"HISTORY The dish originated from northern areas of the Korean Peninsula, but it is also a very popular dish in South Korea, where it can be found anywhere from upscale restaurants to local supermarkets. Bulgogi is believed to have originated during the Goguryeo era (37 BCE–668 CE), when it was originally called maekjeok with the beef being grilled on a skewer. It was then also called neobiani meaning "thinly spread" meat, and was traditionally prepared for the wealthy and the nobility. My version puts a Pan-Asian / Vietnamese spin on it with the addition of the lemongrass and ginger."
