Ingredients needed 🛒3 servings
- pork belly 400g
- salt a pinch
- enoki mushrooms 300g
- soybean paste 1.5 tablespoons
- gochujang 0.5 tablespoons
- sugar 0.5 tablespoons
- minced garlic 1 tablespoon
- green chili peppers to taste
- sesame seeds generously
Recipe 🍳
- Place 400g of finely diced pork belly, cut into 1cm squares, into a pan.
- Sprinkle generously with salt and sear until all initial moisture evaporates and oil begins to render—this is key to achieving deep flavor.
- Add 300g of large-diced enoki mushrooms, along with 1.5 tablespoons soybean paste, 0.5 tablespoons gochujang, 0.5 tablespoons sugar, and 1 tablespoon minced garlic. Stir-fry together.
- As the mushrooms cook, they release moisture, allowing the sauce to thicken without additional water, preventing burning and creating a glossy, moist consistency.
- Once the seasonings are well blended and the mushrooms have softened, finish by sprinkling generously with chopped green chili peppers and sesame seeds.
- Sauté finely diced pork belly with salt in a pan until all moisture evaporates and oil starts to bubble.
- Add sliced enoki mushrooms and seasonings, then stir-fry gently until moist and glossy.
- Finish with chopped green chili peppers and sesame seeds for a spicy, nutty touch.
Cooking tips 💡
- Cook the pork belly thoroughly until all moisture has evaporated and oil begins to sizzle—this unlocks its rich, savory depth and enhances the overall flavor of the gjangjodang.
- You can substitute enoki mushrooms with shiitake, cremini, or finely chopped onions for excellent moisture and texture.
