The starting point was Maangchi‘s recipe for Doejibulgogi, or spicy stir-fried pork.
I used a pound of chuck, and since chuck prefers a slow braise, I put the ingredients (minus the green peppers, which I didn’t have handy) into a cast-iron Dutch oven instead. I browned the beef first, then added the remaining ingredients and about a half cup of water, then cooked on low heat for about an hour and a half.
It’s not too spicy, but it’s got a little zing to it. It’s very very rich and delicious.
Two bad photos equal a good one, right? This stuff was far more tasty than it looks here.
This looks great. I’ve never made Korean food. I’ll have to try this out.

Oh, if you’re going to cook Korean food, I recommend the videos at Maangchi’s site — http://www.maangchi.com — they’re so simple and clear and fun.
