Pork Belly Bulgogi

One of the markets i visit had pork belly bulgogi in the meat case, and i bought it and then started looking for recipes. This one comes from kiejo sarsfield, a chef in the london area. The pork belly cooks up beautifully and it's was fun to eat wrapped in lettuce leaves. I find pork belly difficult to slice, so if you can find it sliced you are well advised to buy it!!

Steps

Mix together all of the ingredients except the pork , in a medium sized bowl.

I use less soy sauce and a bit more of the wine instead.

Add the pork and mix thoroughly , coating all sides.

I found this easiest to do with my hands ,.

The original recipe did not specify , but i let it marinate for an hour at room temperature.

If you want to let it marinate longer , refrigerate it.

Preheat oven to 350 deg f.

Line a baking pan with aluminum foil.

I also lightly greased the foil.

Distribute the pork pieces on the baking pan.

Bake for 25-30 minutes until the meat is cooked and has started to brown.

Remove from the oven.

Finish off by browning for 3 to 5 minutes under the broiler or in a large skillet.

I also served with a little sambal oelek on the side , as well as some korean rice.
