Today I want to share the recipe for a deliciousĀ Korean Style Pan-fried Pork Belly with you. Not only does it taste amazing but also isĀ super easy to make!
One of the most important seasonings we will be needing to make this dish is theĀ Korean hot pepper paste. You could easily find it at most Asian grocery storeĀ or on Amazon.Ā
You donāt have to get the same brand I am using. There are a lot of different brands that are making theĀ hot pepper paste, they taste about the same.
To start, I cut the pork belly into thin slices. Then I marinate the pork with half teaspoon of minced garlic, ginger; one tablespoon of Korean hot pepper paste, honey, soy sauce, sesame oil and toasted sesame seeds.
After about 20 minutes, the pork belly slices are ready to be cooked.
I placed the pork belly evenly onto a non-stickĀ pan and pan-fried them for about 4-5 minutes each side until they have been cooked through.
Top withĀ a handful of my favorite garnish- the fresh cilantro, now this easy and tasty Korean-style pan-fried pork belly is ready to be served!
Below is a step-by- step demonstration of how I made this dish with pictures.
