How to make it
- Sprinkle the sugar evenly over both sides of all the slices of meat. Let sit for 10 minutes.
- In the meantime, prepare the marinade. In a small bowl, blend together the soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, and rice vinegar.
- Pour the soy sauce mixture over the meat and mix well. Marinate for 10 minutes.
- While the meat is marinating, begin cooking the rice. Bring the rice and water to a boil in a medium covered saucepan. Reduce the heat to the lowest setting, cover the pot with a lid, and allow the rice to steam for 20 minutes.
- Once the rice is cooking, prepare the sauce. Mix the black bean sauce, sweet chili sauce, garlic, and rice vinegar in a small bowl. Set aside until serving time.
- Finally, cook the meat. In a skillet over high heat, heat the 3 Tbsp. oil until shimmering. Cook the meat in small batches until brown and carmelized; be careful not to overcrowd the pan. As the meat is cooked, remove to a platter. Each batch should take 2-3 minutes to cook.
- Serve the meat along with the sauce, rice, and lettuce leaves.
- To eat, place a large spoonful of rice down the center of a lettuce leaf, add a few slices of meat, and top with sauce. Roll the lettuce leaf around the filling, and eat like a wrap.

a small family-owned korean restaurant in Plano, Texas made this and it is wonderful. Since I don't live even close to a Korean restaurant this recipe is going to be a keeper. The cooking techniques are on the money and authentic. Thanks for sharing!...more

I tried this tonight and it was great!
I didn't have any black bean sauce, so I improvised a sauce that consisted of some soy, siracha, rice vinegar and some hoison sauce.
It worked out very well!
