    Korean Spicy Pork Bulgogi, Jaeyuk Bokkeum

    Jaeyuk Bokkeum

    what is jaeyuk bokkeum?

    Jaeyuk Bokkeum or Pork Bulgogi is a meat dish that is equally popular to beef bulgogi in Korea. Literal translation of Jaeyuk means pork and bokkeum means stir-fry. If you are a big fan of spicy Korean food, this is a must try item. My recipe, however, is a milder version of Jaeyuk Bokkeum so kids can enjoy it as well. But not to worry, flavorwise, It’s just as tasty and addicting!!

    spicy sauce
    vegetables

    HOw shoul I prep for Jaeyuk Bokkeum?

    • First, prep the meat. Add seasoning per the recipe and set aside.
    • Next, make spicy sauce. You can increase the gochujang here to make it more spicy.
    • Third, chop all the vegetables and set it aside.
    • Next, marinate the meat with spicy sauce.
    • Finally, pan fry everything together!

    What kind of pan should I use to cook?

    Due to the sauce being on the dense, sticky, and sweet side, I suggest using a coated/non-stick pan to cook Jaeyuk Bokkeum. If you plan to cook on an outside grill, make sure the grills are coated with oil prior to cooking Jaeyuk Bokkeum.

    can i add other vegetables to jaeyuk bokkeum?

    Yes of course! Here are some vegetables I suggest:

    • carrot
    • cabbage
    • red onion
    • red pepper
    • zucchini

    Don’t these look mouth watering? Easy to make and share with other too! Enjoy these with a bed or rice or wrapped with lettuce and samjang!! Happy Cooking!
