Ingredients

  • 1 lb pork belly
  • 4 cups napa cabbage or spinach
  • 1 cup kimchi
  • 1 medium carrot
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp gochujang

Instructions

  1. 1

    Slice the 1 lb pork belly into 1/4 inch thick pieces. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the pork in a single layer. Cook until browned and crispy on both sides, about 6-8 minutes total. Transfer to a plate.

  2. 2

    While the pork cooks, steam the 4 cups napa cabbage or spinach until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Set aside.

  3. 3

    In a small bowl, mix the 3 tbsp soy sauce and 1 tbsp gochujang to make the dipping sauce. Add a splash of water if too thick.

  4. 4

    Slice the 1 medium carrot into thin matchsticks. Serve the pork with the steamed greens, kimchi, carrot, and dipping sauce. Wrap the pork and veggies in the greens, if desired.

  5. 5

    Enjoy immediately, dipping each wrap into the sauce.
