Instructions
OPTIONAL (Crispy Garlic Topping)
- If you like garlic and you like crunchy, then do this extra step of making crispy garlic slivers as topping. Cut garlic into thin slivers, then heat 1 Tbsp oil in the frying pan, saute on medium heat until garlic is brown and crispy. Remove oil from your pan and save for later. We don't need this extra oil since pork belly is quite fatty.
Pork Belly Stir Fry with Bean Sprouts
- Rinse bean sprouts and drain. Cut green onions into diagonal slices or chopped. Chop fresh ginger.
- Prepare seasoning by mixing the oyster sauce, soy sauce, rice wine and set aside.
- Heat a non-stick frying pan on medium high heat. Let it heat for couple min. until water sizzles when you sprinkle water on it.
- Add pork belly into the pan and saute for 2 min until it's mostly cooked. Add ginger saute for few seconds then stir in sauce. Stir until everything is well mixed.
- Add the bean sprouts. Keep sauteeing for another 1-2 min. until sprouts are soft but still a little firm. Bean sprouts will continue to cook in residual heat so it's best to stop cooking and transfer out of your pan onto a plate right away.
- Finish off with some fresh green onions, cracked pepper or ground black pepper. Optionally, add green chili peppers and/or crispy garlic bits. Serve on top of rice for a simple rice bowl or enjoy it as Anju with your favorite Soju, Sake, Makgeolli and pretend you are sitting at the DanBam bar!
Notes
- This dish is best enjoyed HOT right from the pan. So, start cooking when you are ready to eat!
- Daepae Samgyeopsal substitutes - buy pork belly, freeze for 1-2 hrs, slice it thin yourself OR use thinly sliced beef cuts sold for beef steak sandwich
- Keep Daepae Samgyeopsal FROZEN until you are ready to cook. If you let it defrost, it will melt and bunch up together.
- Can I slice the pork at home? Yes, just freeze the pork belly for about 1-2 hrs until it becomes firm but not so hard that you can't cut it. Slice it as thin as you can, against the grain.
- Don't overcook the bean sprouts - This dish is really easy to make but one thing you want to keep in mind is that bean sprouts cook very quickly and if they overcook, you will end up with very stringy sprouts which are not fun to eat. Be sure to turn heat off and transfer to a dish from the pan when the bean sprouts still look pretty plump and not fully cooked. It will continue to cook after you turn the heat off.
- Oyster Sauce has MSG - FYI, most Oyster sauces have MSG. If you are fine with MSG, go ahead and use it. But you know I don't do well with MSG and lately I found that there are brands that make this classic Chinese sauce without MSG. Kikkoman was one brand I found.
Additional Toppings - before serving, top with some or all of the following:
sliced Korean green chilis or Jalapeno peppers for a great spicy kick crispy roasted garlic slices some herbs like Perilla or even Cilantro will add additional pop of flavor
