Main Ingredients- 150g thinly sliced pork belly (daepae samgyeopsal)
- 180g scallions (fresh, of moderate thickness)
- 5 cloves whole garlic
Special Sauce- 1 Tbsp soy sauce
- 1/2 Tbsp vinegar
- 1/2 tsp fine gochugaru (Korean chili flakes)
- A pinch of toasted sesame seeds (adjust to taste)
- 1 Tbsp soy sauce
- 1/2 Tbsp vinegar
- 1/2 tsp fine gochugaru (Korean chili flakes)
- A pinch of toasted sesame seeds (adjust to taste)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, wash the scallions thoroughly and pat them dry. Trim them to about 7cm in length. Cutting them to this size will make them easier to roll.
Step 2
Next, gather about 10-12 of the trimmed scallions and arrange them into a neat, round bundle. This bundle will be the flavorful center of your rolls.
Step 3
Now, take the thinly sliced pork belly and wrap it snugly around each scallion bundle, rolling it up tightly. Be gentle to avoid tearing the pork belly.
Step 4
Heat a frying pan over medium-low heat. Place the pork belly and scallion rolls and the whole garlic cloves into the pan. Cook, turning occasionally, until the pork belly is golden brown and looks deliciously cooked, approximately 10 minutes. The garlic will also roast and add its aroma.
Step 5
Once cooked, transfer the pork belly and scallion rolls to a plate lined with paper towels. This step helps to remove excess grease, making the dish lighter and more enjoyable.
Step 6
In a small bowl, combine all the sauce ingredients: soy sauce, vinegar, gochugaru, and sesame seeds. Stir well until fully mixed to create your special dipping sauce. Alternatively, serving with ssamjang (Korean soybean paste) is also delicious.
Step 7
Finally, arrange the drained pork belly and scallion rolls attractively on a serving plate. Your elegant and delicious Pork Belly and Scallion Rolls are ready to be enjoyed!
