One advantage of Korean food is that it's cooked without using much oil. Because less oil is used, it helps prevent and avoid chronic diseases such as obesity and fatty liver.
In this Sesame-Glazed Pork Belly Stir-Fry recipe we're about to share, only 1 tablespoon of oil will be used. Moreover, that oil won't even be used for frying — it will only be used to marinate the pork. If you're ready, let's go through the cooking steps together step by step.
Ingredients
- ½ teaspoon finely minced garlic
- ½ teaspoon finely minced ginger
- 1 tablespoon chili paste
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon fish sauce
- 0.5 lb pork belly
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
Step-by-step instructions
1. Slice the pork belly into thin pieces.
2. Next, put the pork belly into a large bowl and mix it well with the ginger, garlic, chili paste, honey, fish sauce, sesame oil, and sesame seeds until evenly combined. After that, let it marinate for about 20 minutes.
3. Heat a pan over medium heat. Once the pan is hot, place the pork slices in the pan and fry each side for about 4 to 5 minutes.
4. Once both sides of the pork belly are fried, transfer it to a plate, garnish with cilantro or spring onion (or whichever you prefer), and enjoy it deliciously.
