Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons soju
1 tablespoon gochujang (Korean chili paste)
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon sugar
10 grams garlic, grated (2 teaspoons)
10 grams ginger, grated (2 teaspoons)
1 pound (450 grams) pork belly, thinly sliced
2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
4.2 ounces (120 grams, or 1/2 medium) onion, sliced
8 small tortillas or 4 medium tortillas
mild white cheese, shredded
kimchi
2 scallions, finely chopped
sesame seeds

Steps:

  • In a bowl, whisk together the soju, gochujang, soy sauce, sugar, garlic and ginger. Add the pork and mix to combine. Let this marinate while you prepare the other ingredients.
  • Put the sesame oil and onions into a frying pan over medium high heat and sauté until the onions are just starting to brown around the edges.
  • Add the marinated pork, and spread it out into a single layer. Let this fry until browned on one side, and then stir fry until the pork is cooked through.
  • To make the tacos, heat the tortillas and place a layer of pork, followed by the cheese, some kimchi, scallions and sesame seeds.
