Ingredients
- 500 grams Pork shoulder (thinly sliced)
- 2 tablespoons Gochugaru (Korean red pepper flakes)
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Gochujang (Korean red chili paste)
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 4 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon Ginger (grated)
- 1 teaspoon Sugar
- 3 stalks Green onions (chopped)
- 1 medium White onion (sliced)
- 1 large Red bell pepper (sliced)
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (for garnish)
Instructions
Prepare the marinade by mixing gochugaru, soy sauce, gochujang, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, and sugar in a large bowl.
Add the thinly sliced pork shoulder into the marinade and mix thoroughly to coat. Cover and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add vegetable oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the marinated pork and stir-fry for 5-6 minutes until the pork is partially cooked but not fully done.
Add the sliced white onion and red bell pepper to the skillet. Continue stir-frying for another 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender and the pork is fully cooked.
Toss in the chopped green onions and stir-fry for an additional minute for extra flavor.
Remove from heat and transfer the dish to a serving plate. Garnish with sesame seeds.
Serve hot with steamed rice or as part of a Korean-style meal. Enjoy!
