Ingredients
  

For the Korean BBQ Steak Marinade

  • 1 lb 450g ribeye or sirloin steak, thinly sliced
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp mirin or rice vinegar
  • 3 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 tsp grated ginger
  • 1 tsp gochujang Korean red pepper paste
  • 1 tsp sesame seeds
  • 1 scallion chopped
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

For the Spicy Cream Sauce

  • 3 tbsp mayonnaise preferably Kewpie
  • 1 tbsp gochujang
  • 1 tsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 tsp honey or sugar
  • 1 tbsp lime or rice vinegar for tang
  • 1 tbsp warm water to thin as needed

For the Rice Bowl

  • 2 cups cooked short-grain white rice or jasmine rice
  • 1 cup shredded lettuce or cabbage
  • 1/2 cup julienned carrots
  • 1/2 cucumber thinly sliced
  • 2 fried or soft-boiled eggs while this is optional but highly recommended to uplift the taste
  • Sesame seeds & scallions for garnish

Instructions
 

Marinate the Steak

  • Mix all the marinade ingredients in a large bowl. Add steak slices to this marinade and coat thoroughly. Let marinate for at least 30 minutes. I would suggest to give it ideally 1 hour for deeper flavor.

Cook the Steak

  • Hear a skillet or grill pan whichever one you have over high heat.
  • Add some butter in it and sear steak in batches for 1 - 2 mins per side (this depends on the thickness of the steak and how done you want it) until become caramelized and cooked through.
  • Remove from heat and let it rest.

Make the Spicy Cream Sauce

  • Take a separate bowl and whisk together all sauce ingredients.
  • At this point, taste and adjust spiciness or sweetness to your liking.
  • Add warm water to it to get drizzling consistency and make it creamy.

Assemble the Rice Bowls

  • Take bowls and divide warm rice among. Top the warm rice with shredded lettuce, carrots, cucumber and sliced steak.
  • Drizzle the top generously with spicy cream sauce.
  • Add a fried or soft-boiled egg on top.
  • Sprinkle sesame seeds and chopped scallions to finish.
