Ingredients needed 🛒2 servings

  • thick pork belly 400g
  • green onion 1 large
  • rice cake (tteok) handful
  • gochujang 1 tablespoon
  • oyster sauce 1 tablespoon
  • tonkatsu sauce 1 tablespoon
  • sugar 1 tablespoon
  • red pepper powder 1 tablespoon
  • minced garlic 1 tablespoon
  • beer 1 tablespoon
  • black pepper generously
  • toasted sesame seeds a little

Recipe 🍳

  1. Cut the thick pork belly into bite-sized pieces for easy eating.
  2. Chop one large green onion into large chunks to allow maximum fragrance to release.
  3. Place the prepared pork belly and green onion in a pan and grill over high heat, spreading them out evenly.
  4. As the pork belly releases its natural pork fat, the green onion will be cooked in the fat, creating a rich green onion oil flavor and a subtle smoky aroma.
  5. Press down on the green onion repeatedly with your cooking tool to squeeze out the juice and enhance the flavor of the meat.
  6. When the pork belly turns a deep brown color and is fully cooked, remove and discard the charred green onion carefully.
  7. Add gochujang, oyster sauce, tonkatsu sauce, sugar, red pepper powder, and minced garlic—each 1 tablespoon—to the pan, and sprinkle black pepper generously.
  8. Pour in 1 tablespoon of cold beer and add the rice cake handful.
  9. Reduce the heat slightly and gently stir-fry until the rice cake becomes soft and chewy, allowing the sauce to reduce slowly.
  10. If there's too much oil, pour it off lightly after cooking, transfer to a serving dish, and generously sprinkle toasted sesame seeds on top.
  1. Grill pork belly and large green onion together to deeply infuse the meat with rich green onion oil flavor.
  2. Once the green onion aroma is well developed, remove the green onion and add gochujang, oyster sauce, tonkatsu sauce, beer, and rice cake.
  3. Gently stir-fry until the sauce adheres evenly and the rice cake becomes chewy, finishing with a generous sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds.

Cooking tips 💡

  • Grilling the green onion together with the pork belly from the start effectively eliminates the pork’s characteristic odor and intensifies the overall flavor.
  • For a fail-safe spicy-sweet sauce, use equal parts gochujang, oyster sauce, tonkatsu sauce, sugar, red pepper powder, and minced garlic—each measured at 1 tablespoon.
  • Adding 1 tablespoon of beer at the final stage helps evaporate alcohol, removes any lingering off-odor, and adds a glossy sheen and rich umami depth to the sauce.
