Recipe 🍳
- Mix ground pork and ground beef in a 1:1 ratio, season with salt and pepper, then knead thoroughly to remove air bubbles so the filling doesn’t leak during cooking.
- Chop onion, button mushrooms, and fresh kimchi finely, then stir-fry in a pan until all moisture has evaporated to prepare the filling.
- Flatten the kneaded meat mixture into a large rectangle, place the cooked vegetables and pizza cheese in the center, roll tightly to fully enclose, forming a patty.
- Heat oil in a pan, place the patty in, cover with a lid, and cook over low heat until fully cooked through.
- Once the meat is about 90% cooked, add sliced garlic and white parts of green onion to one side of the pan, stir-fry briefly, then pour in soy sauce and pear juice in a 1:1 ratio and reduce until well blended with the meat juices.
- Finally, add heavy cream and simmer gently until thickened and creamy. Finish with pepper, chopped green onion tops, and sesame oil to complete the sauce, then drizzle generously over the ddokgalbi.
- Mix ground pork and beef, knead well, and season with salt and pepper.
- Stir-fry chopped onion, mushrooms, and kimchi until dry, then mix with cheese and stuff into the meat to form patties.
- Cook the patties covered over low heat, then finish with a sauce made from soy sauce, pear juice, and heavy cream.
Cooking tips 💡
- Knead the meat mixture firmly to remove as much air as possible so that the cheese and filling won't ooze out during cooking.
- Adding grated pear juice to the soy sauce gives a natural sweetness and depth of flavor without being artificial.
