Meat Jun
Ingredients
½ pound ribeye, thinly sliced
¼ cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon sugar
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 stalk green onion, chopped
Batter:
⅓ cup flour
2 eggs, beaten
Dipping Sauce (optional):
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon Korean chili pepper flakes (optional)
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 stalks green onions, chopped
Directions
Marinate the meat. Place the meat slices in a container. Mix together all the marinade ingredients and pour over the meat . Marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
Make the dipping sauce (optional). Mix together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, chili flakes, garlic, and green onions in a small bowl. Set aside.
Batter the meat. Pour the flour onto a plate. Beat the eggs and place in a large bowl. Working with one slice at a time, dip the meat slice into the flour first (shake off any excess flour). Then dip into the egg.
Panfry the meat. Make sure there’s about ½-inch of oil in your pan. Over medium-high heat, fry each side for 1-2 minutes. Once finished, remove to a plate lined with paper towels (to soak up oil).
Time to eat! Serve the meat jun with hot rice and dipping sauce on the side. You can eat with fork and knife and slice each piece like a steak. Or use scissors to cut the meat jun into strips and then eat with chopsticks (this is how most places in Hawaii serve it).
