Ingredients needed 🛒2 servings

  • 400g pork shoulder
  • 1/2 onion
  • mushrooms to taste
  • 1/5 Korean radish
  • 1 green onion
  • 1 tablespoon cooking wine
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 4 tablespoons brewed soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons gochujang
  • 2 tablespoons gochugaru
  • 2 tablespoons minced garlic
  • sesame oil to taste
  • 1 tablespoon fish sauce
  • 2 tablespoons vinegar

Recipe 🍳

  1. Mix 1 tablespoon cooking wine, 2 tablespoons sugar, and 3 tablespoons brewed soy sauce to make a basic bulgogi base sauce. Stir until the sugar dissolves, and warm it slightly if necessary.
  2. To the base sauce, add 2 tablespoons gochujang, 1 tablespoon gochugaru, and minced garlic and sesame oil to taste, and mix to complete the spicy jeyuk seasoning sauce.
  3. Thinly slice the Korean radish using a mandoline, then add 1 tablespoon fish sauce, 2 tablespoons gochugaru, and minced garlic, and toss to mix, making a radish salad (musaengchae).
  4. Julienne the green onion into thin strips to make scallion shreds (pachae), then mix with 1 tablespoon sugar, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 2 tablespoons vinegar, 0.5 tablespoon gochugaru, and sesame oil to complete the green onion salad (pajeol-i).
  5. Add a little cooking oil to a pan, place the pork shoulder cut into bite-size pieces, and sear over high heat until golden brown.
  6. Once the surface of the meat is cooked and enough pork fat has rendered, add the coarsely chopped onion and mushrooms and stir-fry together.
  7. When the ingredients are somewhat cooked, add the prepared jeyuk seasoning sauce, radish salad, and green onion salad all at once to the pan and stir-fry quickly over high heat.
  8. Once the green onion and radish salads have wilted slightly and the seasoning is evenly distributed, turn off the heat and transfer to a plate to serve.
  1. Make the jeyuk seasoning sauce with soy sauce, sugar, gochujang, etc., and separately mix the radish salad and green onion salad.
  2. Sear the pork shoulder to render the fat, then add the onion and mushrooms and stir-fry.
  3. Add the seasoning sauce, radish salad, and green onion salad, and stir-fry quickly over high heat to finish.

Cooking tips 💡

  • Make sure the sugar fully dissolves in the bulgogi base sauce to prevent the seasoning from not adhering.
  • Sear the thick pork shoulder until crispy to render enough fat, which enhances the flavor when the seasoning is added.
  • Add the radish salad and green onion salad at the end and stir-fry briefly to maintain their crunchy texture.
