This South Korean classic consists of thinly sliced fatty pork cuts that are marinated and then grilled or pan-fried. The marinade is based on gochujang - a spicy Korean chili paste - and additions such as soy sauce, chili flakes, rice wine, garlic, and ginger.
Also known as
dwaejigogi bokkeum, this pork dish is commonly prepared at home, and it is a staple at Korean restaurants. Jeyuk bokkeum is usually served with lettuce or perilla leaves that are meant to be used as wrappers, while other accompaniments include
ssamjang and
kimchi.
