Grilled Beef Wraps
Grilled beef sirloin sliced thin and wrapped in crisp lettuce leaves with gochujang-spiked sauce, quick-pickled cucumber, scallion and sesame seeds. A lightened take on Korean ssam that trims oil and sugar while keeping the smoky char and gochujang punch intact, served cool and crunchy.
