1 Tablespoon sesame seeds
½ teaspoon black pepper
½ teaspoon salt
6 Tablespoons sugar
4-6 cloves garlic, crushed
3-4 Tablespoons soy sauce
2-3 Tablespoons water
1 Tablespoon sesame oil
½ cup chopped green onions
1 pound flank steak, cut into very thin slices (easiest to slice when still partially frozen)
In dry skillet, parch sesame seeds until slightly brown. In a gallon ziplock baggie combine rest of ingredients EXCEPT meat. Once mixed, add to meat, using hands to coat all pieces and mix. Marinate all day. Cook in frying pan with a bit of hot oil. Make a dipping sauce with 1/3 part soy sauce to 2/3 part water, bit of crushed red pepper, and a bit of sesame oil - heat to simmer. Serve meat with sides of Large leaf lettuce, sauce, and rice. To eat authentically, use lettuce leaf as a wrap, put meat, rice, and sauce inside, and wrap lettuce around it.
To add a bit of heat, add a dash of red chili pepper sauce to the marinade and sauce.

We tried this last night. It was good. I went to two stores in search of Butter Lettuce and Flank steak, but couldn't find them. So I used iceberg and sirloin. The meat was too tough for my kids to chew, but the flavor was really good.
Hmmm. I picked up both at Smiths. The butter lettuce is sometimes called Bibb lettuce or Boston lettuce. As for the flank steak. *shrug* When I use petite sirloin (back before I discovered flank) I had to be really careful to cut it really thin and not to over cook it. It would cook it till it was really close to done, but not quite.
