  Instructions:

1. Prepare the Marinade:

   • In a bowl, mix together the soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, chopped green onions, sesame seeds (if using), and black pepper.

2. Marinate the Beef:

   • Place the thinly sliced beef in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag.
   • Pour the marinade over the beef, ensuring it's well coated.
   • Cover the dish or seal the bag, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or ideally overnight, to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat.

3. Cooking:

• Heat a tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

• Add the sliced onions and julienned carrots (if using) to the skillet and stir-fry for a couple of minutes until they start to soften.
• Add the marinated beef to the skillet in batches, allowing it to cook for 2-3 minutes per batch until it's cooked through and slightly caramelized. Avoid overcrowding the pan, as this can cause the beef to steam rather than sear.
• Once all the beef is cooked, return any reserved marinade to the skillet and cook for an additional minute, allowing it to thicken slightly.

4. Serve:

• Serve the bulgogi hot, garnished with additional chopped green onions and sesame seeds if desired.
• Bulgogi is typically served with steamed rice and a side of vegetables, such as lettuce leaves or Korean kimchi, for wrapping.
