Samgyeopsal

Ingredients

• 1.5 lb pork belly slices
• 1 tsp salt
• ½ tsp black pepper
• 1 tbsp vegetable oil
• ½ cup ssamjang (Korean dipping sauce)
• 1 head green leaf lettuce
• 4 cloves garlic cloves
• 4 stalks green onions

Instructions

1. 1

   Pat the 1.5 lb pork belly slices dry with paper towels. Season both sides with the 1 tsp salt and 0.5 tsp black pepper.

2. 2

   Heat the 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork belly in a single layer, working in batches if needed, and cook until the bottom is golden brown and crispy, about 4-5 minutes.

3. 3

   Flip the pork and cook the other side until browned and cooked through, another 4-5 minutes. The meat should be crispy on the edges and tender inside.

4. 4

   While the pork cooks, slice the 4 garlic cloves thinly and cut the 4 green onions into 2-inch pieces.

5. 5

   Transfer the cooked pork to a cutting board and cut into bite-sized pieces. Serve hot with the lettuce leaves, garlic, green onions, and 0.5 cup ssamjang for wrapping.

6. 6

   To eat, place a piece of pork on a lettuce leaf, add a dab of ssamjang, a slice of garlic, and a piece of green onion. Wrap and enjoy.
