Samgyeopsal





Besides bulgogi and galbi, samgyeopsal is another meat dish which I enjoy eating at any Korean restaurant.

Samgyeopsal or uncured pork belly is sliced very thinly and then grilled (you actually grill your own meat. As in any Korean restaurant, its either the tables are equipped with gas grills or a portable gas grill will be given to you for your use). 

This how I actually do my samgyeopsal:

1. Take a leaf or two of either lettuce or perilla.

2. Dip the grilled pork belly in a mixture of salt, sesame oil and 
    black pepper for added taste.

3. Place the meat on the leaf and then add a little rice, a dab of 
    ssamjang(fermented soy bean paste mixed with a bit of sweet 
    chilli paste).

4. You may also want to add a little kimchi or seasoned green 
    onion (shredded green onion mixed with sesame oil and red 
    pepper).

5. Wrap it up into a neat little packet.

6. Then bite in.

I enjoy eating it with a can or two of Coke.
