Porkbellybulgogi Recipes

Steps:

• Mix together all of the ingredients except the pork, in a medium sized bowl. I use less soy sauce and a bit more of the wine instead.
• Add the pork and mix thoroughly, coating all sides. I found this easiest to do with my hands,.
• The original recipe did not specify, but I let it marinate for an hour at room temperature. If you want to let it marinate longer, refrigerate it.
• Preheat oven to 350 deg F (180 deg C).
• Line a baking pan with aluminum foil. I also lightly greased the foil.
• Distribute the pork pieces on the baking pan (I found that half the recipe fit perfectly on my jelly roll pan).
• Bake for 25-30 minutes until the meat is cooked and has started to brown.
• Remove from the oven.
• Finish off by browning for 3 to 5 minutes under the broiler or in a large skillet.
• Note1: the recipe did not specify the amount of sugar and I added about a tsp of brown sugar to half the quantity of pork, as that is what I had at hand.
• Note2: I served with leaf lettuce, although I think Boston lettuce leaves work better. I also served with a little sambal oelek on the side, as well as some Korean rice.

Steps:

• For the pork belly: Pat the skin of the pork belly completely dry. Using a sharp knife, cut parallel lines across the skin and fat, about a 1/2 inch apart, making sure not to cut down into the meat.
• Mix the salt, baking powder and pepper in a small bowl. Rub the pork all over with the salt mixture, making sure to get it into the grooves on the skin. Place the pork skin-side up on a rack in a roasting pan. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 8 hours and up to 24 hours (see Cook's Note).
• About an hour before cooking the pork, allow it to come to room temperature.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Pour 4 cups of water into the roasting pan with the pork (this will prevent the drippings from burning). Cook until the meat is tender but not falling apart, about 3 hours.
• For the cabbage: Meanwhile, add the cabbage, vinegar, jam, sugar and salt to a large high-sided skillet and mix to combine. Cover, place over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally to make sure the cabbage is not browning, until softened and no longer crisp, about 20 minutes. The cabbage will release some moisture, but if it starts to stick to the bottom of the skillet or seems dry, add water 1 tablespoon at a time to moisten. Keep warm.
• For the potatoes: Put the potatoes in a medium pot, cover with water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook until the potatoes are tender but not too soft, about 15 minutes. Drain into a colander and set aside for about 10 minutes. When the potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel them with your hands or a paring knife.
• Meanwhile, add the sugar to a large skillet and set over medium heat. Cook, without stirring, until the sugar is completely melted, about 3 minutes. When the edges start to turn brown, after about another 3 minutes, add the butter and kosher salt. Using a rubber spatula, stir carefully to combine. Continue to cook until the mixture is amber, about 5 minutes. Add the potatoes and cook, stirring gently to coat them with the browned sugar, until heated through, about 4 minutes. (Don't worry if the sugar hardens when you first add the potatoes; it will melt again.) Sprinkle with flaky sea salt before serving.
• After the pork belly has cooked for 3 hours, increase the oven temperature to 475 degrees F and continue to cook until the skin is crisp and brown, about 20 minutes more. Let rest for 15 minutes before slicing. Serve with the cabbage and potatoes.

Steps:

• Prepare the beef or pork.
• Mix the marinade in a medium-size bowl.
• Add the meat and toss. Allow to marinate for 30 minutes.
• The meat can be cooked over medium-high heat in a frying pan or stove-top griddle.
• Heat the pan or griddle first; make it very hot.
• Add the oil; cook the meat for 1 or 2 minutes on each side, browning it nicely.
• Garnish with sesame seeds.

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients, refrigerate overnight for best results or a minimum of 1 hours.
• Cook over medium-high heat in frying pan, stirring occasionally until well done and browned.
• Serve with white rice.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, combine garlic cloves, soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil, crushed red pepper, ginger, and ground pepper.
• Add pork tenderloin and onion wedges; marinate at least 10 minutes.
• In a 12-inch skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. In 3 batches, brown pork and onion, 3 to 5 minutes per batch. Discard marinade.
• Return all pork and onion to skillet; cook until warm. Garnish with toasted sesame seeds, if desired.

Steps:

• Place the beef in a shallow dish. Combine soy sauce, sugar, green onion, garlic, sesame seeds, sesame oil, and ground black pepper in a small bowl. Pour over beef. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
• Quickly grill beef on hot grill until slightly charred and cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes per side.
