The recipe

Instructions

  1. 1
    Slice the pork belly into thin strips. Whisk gochujang, gochugaru, soy, sugar, garlic, ginger and sesame oil in a bowl.
  2. 2
    Tip the pork into the marinade and toss. Leave 10 minutes (or up to 1 hour).
  3. 3
    Heat a wide pan on high. Cook the pork in a single layer for 2 minutes — let it caramelise without stirring.
  4. 4
    Add the sliced onion and stir-fry for 4 minutes until the pork is glazed and the onions softened.
  5. 5
    Top with spring onions and sesame seeds. Serve with rice and lettuce leaves for wrapping.
