Recipe 🍳
- In a dry frying pan, first grill 300g of whole pork belly, fat-side down, until golden brown, then grill the other sides evenly until golden brown.
- Once the pork is cooked, add 1 stalk of green onion, 1/2 onion, 1/2 apple, and 5 cloves of whole garlic to the frying pan where the pork was cooked.
- If you have a kitchen torch, lightly char the vegetables (onion, garlic, green onion). If not, grill the vegetables in the frying pan until golden brown.
- Add 1L of water, 2 tbsp soup soy sauce, 2 tbsp anchovy sauce, and 1/2 tbsp doenjang. Simmer over medium heat until the 1L of broth reduces to 500ml (by half).
- Once the liquid has reduced by half, remove the pork from the broth, set aside, and thinly slice it into bite-sized pieces.
- Remove all the remaining vegetables, place them in a sieve, and mash them with a spoon or ladle. Add only the mashed vegetables that pass through the sieve to the broth.
- Pour in 500ml of store-bought beef bone broth and bring to a boil. The broth is now complete.
