Pork

Kimchi Fried Rice

Method

Pork Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Pork

    In a large bowl, combine gochujang, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, and sesame oil. Mix well to create a marinade.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Pork

    Add the boneless pork shoulder to the marinade and coat it thoroughly. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.

  3. 3

    Cook the Pork

    Preheat your grill or smoker to medium-high heat. Remove the pork from the marinade and discard the leftover marinade.

  4. 4

    Grill the Pork

    Grill the pork for about 15-20 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Remove from the grill and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

Kimchi Fried Rice Preparation

  1. 5

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large skillet or wok, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and diced carrot, sautéing for about 2-3 minutes until fragrant.

  2. 6

    Add Kimchi

    Stir in the chopped kimchi and cook for another 3-4 minutes, allowing it to become slightly caramelized.

  3. 7

    Add Cooked Rice

    Add the cooked rice to the skillet, breaking up any clumps. Stir well to combine with the kimchi and vegetables.

  4. 8

    Add Peas and Seasoning

    Mix in the frozen peas, salt, and black pepper. Stir-fry for an additional 5 minutes until everything is heated through.

  5. 9

    Fry the Eggs

    In a separate pan, heat a little oil over medium heat. Crack the eggs and fry them sunny side up until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny.
