Korean-Inspired Beef in Pita Wraps image

I've just made this for dinner, it's really great! :) I added lots of black pepper, but that's a personal preference. Preparation time does not include marinating time. NOTE: It's supposed to be black rice vinegar, not black vinegar :/ Instructions on OAMC have been added.

Time 15m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon black vinegar (or substitute white rice vinegar)
1 teaspoon sesame oil
2 teaspoons gingerroot, sliced
1 garlic clove, minced
black pepper, to taste
1 slice beef, uncooked (your favourite cut, I presume. The one my mum bought simply said "for barbecuing")
tomatoes
lettuce
1 whole wheat pita bread

Steps:

  • Combine the soy sauce, black rice vinegar, sesame oil, ginger, garlic and black pepper in a small bowl (do not use metal).
  • Stab your beef with a fork.
  • Add the beef to the marinade. Make sure it's evenly coated!
  • Cover with foil and leave in the fridge to marinate, from 1/2 hour to 3 hours, depending on how strong you like the flavours.
  • When ready to cook, preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius.
  • Slice the pita bread into half carefully and grill it until toasted. Remove and put on a plate.
  • Remove your beef from the fridge and pour whatever remaining marinade into a frying pan.
  • Heat until it starts to bubble, then add your beef.
  • (Depending on how you like your beef to be cooked, and also the cooking time here will change.).
  • Cook for about 2 minutes on each side, turning beef with a pair of tongs.
  • Put a leaf of lettuce on your pita bread, followed by tomato, then the beef and another leaf of lettuce.
  • Devour. Warning: it's gonna get messy.
  • OAMC INSTRUCTIONS:.
  • To freeze: place marinade ingredients and meat in a zip top bag. Freeze.
  • To serve: Thaw and cook as desired.
