Korean Style Pork Belly Nachos Recipe By Tasty

Steps:

• Make the ssamjang: In a medium bowl, stir together the soybean paste, chile paste, mirin, sesame oil, garlic, and sugar.
• Make the salt & pepper sesame oil: In a small bowl, stir together the salt, sesame oil, and pepper.
• Heat a Korean barbecue griddle or large pan over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, rub a piece of pork belly around the pan to grease with the melted fat, then arrange the pork belly in the pan in a single layer, working in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. Cook until the pork belly is golden brown and crispy and the internal temperature reaches at least 145°F (63°C), 2-3 minutes per side.
• Cut the pork belly into bite-size pieces using kitchen shears, then arrange on a plate with the perilla leaves, red leaf lettuce, jalapeños, and garlic. Serve with the ssamjang and salt & pepper sesame oil.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Combine pork belly slices with garlic, soy sauce, red pepper powder, honey, and ⅓ cup (80 ml) kimchi juice. Mix until the pork belly is coated in red.
• Pan-fry pork belly until fat has rendered and crispy.
• Assemble your nachos. In a skillet, lay down a layer of tortilla chips, sprinkle on the cheeses, add chopped kimchi, toss on the cooked pork belly, top with some chopped red onions. Repeat.
• Melt the cheeses under the broiler until crispy and bubbly.
• Mix together the sour cream and remaining ¼ cup (60 ml) kimchi juice and drizzle on top of the nachos.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Slice the pork into extremely thin slices, then transfer to a large bowl. This works best when the pork is super cold or partially frozen.
• Add in all of the ingredients besides the canola oil, then mix until the pork and the vegetables are evenly coated with the marinade.
• Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
• Heat the oil in a pan over high heat, add pork, being sure not to crowd the pan, stir-fry the pork in batches until slightly crispy on the edges, about 3-4 minutes. If you're using pork belly, cook for a bit longer, around 6-7 minutes.
• Sprinkle a bit of sesame seeds on top, then serve with rice!
• Enjoy!
