Solo Cooking God's Samgyeopsal Nureongji Pizza

A unique samgyeopsal pizza made by turning instant rice into crispy nureongji crust, topped with ssamjang mayo sauce, slab pork belly, green onions, and cheese

🙋 Recommended for

  • Those who want to enjoy their usual pork belly and rice in a fresh, pizza-style twist
  • People looking for a rich, savory, slightly salty unique late-night snack that pairs perfectly with beer

Ingredients needed 🛒1 servings

  • instant rice 1 bowl
  • slab pork belly generously
  • minced garlic 1 tablespoon
  • salt a pinch
  • pepper a pinch
  • ssamjang 1 tablespoon
  • mayonnaise 1.5 tablespoons
  • green onion slices generously
  • mozzarella cheese generously
  • perilla leaves a small amount
  • hot sauce or sriracha sauce a little

Recipe 🍳

  1. Place generous slab pork belly in a pan, sprinkle with 1 tablespoon minced garlic, salt, and pepper, and cook until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
  2. Wipe the pan clean with a kitchen towel to remove any remaining oil.
  3. Spread 1 bowl of warm instant rice evenly across the pan. Dipping the back of a spoon in water slightly prevents the rice from sticking and makes spreading easier.
  4. On low heat, mix 1 tablespoon ssamjang and 1.5 tablespoons mayonnaise to make ssamjang mayo sauce, then spread it evenly over the rice.
  5. Layer generous green onion slices on top of the sauce.
  6. Add the pre-cooked slab pork belly and sprinkle generously with mozzarella cheese.
  7. Cover the pan and cook on low heat until the cheese is fully melted. During this time, the bottom layer of rice becomes crispy like nureongji.
  8. Once the cheese melts, use a torch to lightly char the top surface according to preference for added smoky flavor.
  9. Garnish with fragrant perilla leaves and serve with hot sauce or sriracha sauce.
  1. Cook slab pork belly with minced garlic, salt, and pepper, then set aside. Wipe the pan clean.
  2. Spread instant rice thinly in the pan, then layer in order: ssamjang mayo sauce, green onion slices, cooked pork belly, and mozzarella cheese.
  3. Cover and cook on low heat until the cheese melts and the bottom turns into crispy nureongji. Finish with perilla leaves and sauce.

Cooking tips 💡

  • Dip the back of a spoon in water when spreading rice to prevent sticking and make shaping easier.
  • Maintain low heat throughout the process to avoid burning and achieve a golden, crispy nureongji crust.
  • If you have a torch, briefly charring the cheese surface at the end greatly enhances both flavor and visual appeal.
