Korean Fire Pork Toeji Kogi Kui Recipes

DWAEJI BULGOGI (KOREAN-STYLE SPICY GRILLED PORK) RECIPE

Steps:

• For the Dwaeji Bulgogi: Combine onion, Asian pear, scallion whites, garlic, and ginger in the bowl of a food processor and process to a coarse purée, scraping down sides of food processor bowl as needed, about 30 seconds. Transfer mixture to a medium bowl and whisk together with gochujang, gochugaru, soy sauce, rice syrup, mirin, sesame oil, and black pepper.
• Place pork in a gallon zipper-lock bag or large baking dish, and pour marinade over the meat. Toss to evenly distribute the marinade, then seal bag, removing as much air as possible (if using baking dish, wrap tightly with plastic wrap). Transfer pork to refrigerator, and marinate for at least 1 hour and up to 24 hours.
• Light one chimney full of charcoal. When all the charcoal is lit and covered with gray ash, pour out and arrange the coals on one side of the charcoal grate. Set cooking grate in place, place wire rack on top of grill grate over the coals, cover grill, and allow to preheat for 5 minutes. Alternatively, set half the burners on a gas grill to the highest heat setting, cover, and preheat for 10 minutes. Clean and oil the wire rack set over the grill grate.

KOREAN FIRE PORK- TOEJI KOGI KUI

Steps:

• It is easiest if you get thinly sliced pork roast in a Korean market. If you get the whole roast, freeze slightly and slice thinly, about 1/8-1/4 inch thin, score meat lightly. Set aside into mixing bowl.
• Mix rest of ingredients together and pour into bowl with the meat. Using hands knead the meat making sure that the marinade covers each piece completely.
• Set meat aside into refrigerator to marinate for at least 1/2 hour.
• You can grill or broil the meat. I would lay some foil down first and poke holes into the foil. Or you can fry it in a hot pan coated with a little oil.
• Cook meat until lightly browned.
• Serve with plenty of steamed rice and your choice of Asian vegetables.
