Sung Si-kyung's Zucchini Pork Stir-fry

A spicy, savory rice side dish made by stir-frying salt-cured zucchini for extra crunch with savory pork, doubanjiang, and oyster sauce.

Ingredients needed 2 servings

Recipe

Cooking tips

  • Do not rinse the zucchini after curing; squeezing it without rinsing allows the salt to season the zucchini itself, keeping it crisp and well-integrated.
  • Doubanjiang is very salty, so add it gradually—about half a tablespoon at a time—and adjust to taste.
  • Adding tomato brings acidity and umami, which helps cut through the richness of the pork.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to enjoy a unique zucchini dish and a meat side dish at the same time.
  • Those who like savory, Chinese-style stir-fries using doubanjiang and oyster sauce.
  • Those who want a hearty rice side dish with a crisp texture.
