Spicy Korean Steak Tacos with Kimchi image

Salting the steaks helps to tenderize the beef and adds to its flavor. Turning the steaks ensures they cook evenly and caramelize on the outside.

Yield Makes 16 tacos

Number Of Ingredients 17

For the steak:
2 (1 1/2-inch/4-cm-thick) rump steaks or boneless sirloin steaks (700g)
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
2 cups (600g) coarse salt
Cracked black pepper
For the Spicy Ginger Sauce:
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
1 tablespoon Chinese cooking wine (Shaoxing)
1 tablespoon finely grated ginger
1 teaspoon dried chile flakes
1 tablespoon finely grated palm sugar or brown sugar
For the tacos:
16 small flour tortillas, lightly toasted
1/2 cup (150g) Japanese mayonnaise
2 cups (160g) finely shredded daikon
1 cup (200g) store-bought kimchi
1/2 cup coriander (cilantro) leaves

Steps:

  • Rub the steaks with the oil. Spread half the rock salt over a tray, top with the steaks and cover with the remaining salt. Set aside for 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile make the spicy ginger sauce: Place the oyster sauce, cooking wine, ginger, chile flakes and sugar in a small bowl and mix until the sugar has dissolved.
  • Wipe all the salt from the steaks, using paper towel, and sprinkle with pepper.
  • Preheat a grill pan or barbecue over high heat.
  • Cook the steaks, turning every 1 minute, for 2-3 minutes each side or until cooked to your liking. In the last 30 seconds of cooking time, brush the steaks with the spicy ginger sauce and turn to caramelize both sides.
  • Cover gently with aluminum foil and allow to rest for 5 minutes. Thinly slice the steaks. Spread the tortillas with the mayonnaise. Top with the daikon, steak, kimchi and cilantro to serve.

This recipe did not work out for me. The steak was tough and the kimchi marinade was too spicy.

I would not recommend this recipe. The steak was bland and the kimchi marinade did not add any flavor.

This recipe was a complete disaster. The steak was overcooked and the kimchi marinade was way too sour.

I followed the recipe exactly and the steak turned out tough and chewy. I'm not sure what went wrong.

I'm not usually a fan of steak, but this recipe completely changed my mind. The spiciness of the kimchi was balanced perfectly with the tenderness of the steak. 10/10 would recommend.
