Korean Braised Pork Belly (Doejibulgogi)

Braised pork belly slices with gochujang and soy in a sticky, caramelised sauce. Marinating for a full 30 minutes, not just tossing and cooking, is what actually gets the gochujang into the meat rather than just coating it.

Instructions

1

Marinate the sliced pork belly in the gochujang, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic and ginger for at least 30 minutes.

2

Pan-fry over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until the pork is caramelised at the edges and fully cooked through, about 8-10 minutes.

3

Let the pork rest for a minute off the heat so the caramelised glaze sets slightly.

4

Serve over steamed rice, garnished with green onions and sesame seeds.
