Bossam

Bossam is a South Korean dish consisting of sliced and steamed pork that is wrapped in leaves of vegetables such as chard, beetroot, lettuce, or Chinese cabbage. When properly prepared, the meat should have a delicately smooth, creamy taste. It is often accompanied by rice, sweet kimchi, and shrimp sauce.

The dish is traditionally served as anju, denoting dishes that go well with alcoholic beverages. Bossam is a classic example of a simple dish that really comes together with the addition of numerous condiments and toppings, so many restaurants like to serve it with side dishes such as kimchi stew, dwenjang jjigae, or seafood pancakes.
