Ingredients
Directions
1. Whisk together gochujang, soy sauce, rice vinegar, gingerroot, sesame oil, honey and garlic in a large bowl. Transfer half the sauce to a small bowl for dipping.
2. Trim any excess fat from edges of steaks. Cut steaks across the grain into ½-inch (1 cm) thick strips. Add beef to marinade and stir to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or for up to 2 hours.
3. Meanwhile, soak the bamboo skewers in water for 30 minutes.
4. Remove meat from marinade; discard marinade. Pat meat dry with paper towel. Thread 1 or 2 strips of beef onto each skewer, starting at one end of beef strip and weaving the skewer in and out of the meat, down the centre of the strip, so it stays in place while grilling.
5. Heat an indoor grill to medium or a grill pan over medium heat. Cook skewers, in batches as necessary, for about 6 minutes, turning twice or more, until the beef is browned and cooked to medium-rare at the least.
6. Serve garnished with radishes, cucumbers and parsley and with reserved dipping sauce and lime wedges to squeeze over top.
