What kind of side dish looks nice and special but is very simple to make? Hot soup is a good answer but something fatty will also be a good choice, as long as it’s very delicious.
Spicy-stir fried pork is the perfect dish that I was thinking of. Just follow the recipe and make a delicious, irresistible, spicy, shiny, stir-fried pork dish in 15 minutes! I posted the video and the recipe years ago on my website, and it’s also one of my cookbook recipes, but this updated version is slightly modified and improved.
This time I used pre-cut pork sold at a Korean grocery store, but you can also just get pork belly at your local butcher and cut it into think pieces about 1/8 inch thick. You could also replace pork belly with chicken breast, slightly frozen so you can slice it thinly and nicely.
Serves 3 to 4
Ingredients

Directions
- Heat up a large, thick skillet (or pan) over medium high heat.
- Add pork, hot pepper paste, soy sauce, sugar, hot pepper flakes, black pepper, and sesame oil.

- Mix it well, stirring with a wooden spoon. Cook it for a few minutes until the pork is well mixed with the seasonings.
- Add garlic, ginger, onion, and green onions. Stir and cook for 12 to 15 minutes until the pork is fully cooked and juicy and a little crispy.

- Transfer to a serving plate and serve with rice, kimchi, lettuce, ssamjang, and more side dishes.

Made this tonight with chicken(it’s what I had in my freezer), it’s the best tasting thing in the world! I have a hard time remembering to eat due to an autoimmune disorder but I have no problem eating maangchi’s recipes :)
I’m glad you enjoyed this dish!
I made this last week…. It was DELICIOUS! I’m in the military and spent a year in Korea. The one thing I miss most is the food. I appreciate you posting these recipes. Brings me back!
I’m glad you like my recipes. You went to Korea to protect my country, but you fell in love with our food. I lived in the USA, and then once I went back to Korea I really missed some American foods, like salad. We have something in common!
This was amazing. You are amazing.

Dinner for one.
**HI Maangchi, thank you for sharing your recipes. I like your cooking videos as you show the ‘real world’. Unlike many cooking celebrities and shows, where all ingredients are prepared prior to the shooting, and no washing is needed to be done during and after the cooking. I watch your videos over few times, considering the preparation work and cleaning up before deciding which dishes to make. Kamsahamida.***

안녕하세요!
I love Your recipes! Ever since I started following Your blog, my cooking became so much better!
This recipe is probably the easies I’ve done so far. As a dinner, I made it with 밥, 통배추김치, 흰무 (I’m not sure if it’s correct name for pickled radish) and my favorite 녹차라떼.
Sooooo good! And easy!
Greetings from 폴란드!

I like to add kimchi to mine. I normally use some of the fresher kimchi but still sour.
This one is with onion, green gochu and kimchi.

It looks great! I sometimes make it this way, too! Stir fried kimchi and pork, which is another recipe I will post someday! : ) Yours looks so good!
Hi after watching your cooking show, I tried this recipe because I had all ingredients in the house. It turns out pretty good, very tasty. I like your show, teaching, funny and after cooking you show how to eat with your dish.
I just found your videos and this was the first recipe I made myself – it turned out lip-smackingly good. Will be going thru a lot more of your recipes! Thanks!
Hi Maangchi, this is so delicious and I’ve been making it so much!
My cooking time has been longer than yours, but I’ve been using a whole pork belly around 3.3 lbs every time that I’ve made the recipe.

Whenever we cook porkbelly that we bought here in the US (from Costco) it’s tough. What are we doing wrong?
All meat will be tough if you cook it wrong. Start out with HIGH heat and braise it then once its braised cook on low heat. Meat only gets tender on low heat.
This was so delicious! I am using the not-so-spicy red pepper flakes, which makes it perfect for my taste– the gochujang makes it spicy but it’s not a killer! This was amazingly delicious with lettuce, perilla leaf and rice. Yummy! :)

Hi Maangchi! I have been using your recipes for over 5 years! I always make this recipe for just my husband and me but is there a way I can decrease spiciness without making it bland? Should I add 된장? I just don’t know how much! Please let me know if you can. Thank you!
Use less hot pepper paste and add just a little bit of soy sauce according to your taste. Good luck!
Delicious Maangchi!
I used pork shoulder this time, since I couldn’t find good pork belly. Happy with the result, it was very tasty!
