Beef Wrapped In Lettuce Leaves, Korean Style

1. 1

   Use a sharp knife to strip meat from ribs; it will come off easily and in one piece (reserve bones and any meat that adheres to them for stock).

2. 2

   If time allows, freeze meat for 30 minutes to make slicing easier.

3. 3

   Combine scallions, ginger, garlic, sugar, pepper, soy sauce and 1/2 cup water in blender, and puree until very smooth.

4. 4

   Slice meat 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick.

5. 5

   Toss with scallion mixture, and marinate for 15 minutes to 2 hours.

6. 6

   Preheat a grill or broiler, or preheat oven to its maximum temperature, and put a heavy roasting pan in it.

7. 7

   Remove meat from marinade, and grill, broil or roast just until done, no more than a couple of minutes a side; it's nice if the meat is browned outside and rare inside, but it's imperative that it not be overcooked.

8. 8

   To eat, wrap a piece or two of meat in a torn piece of lettuce; garnish with a drop or two of soy sauce or bean paste if you like.
