Tips for Experienced Cooks

Once your pork is marinated, give it a quick sear on high heat before turning down the temperature. This will add a beautiful caramelization that enhances the flavor. Furthermore, consider adding a bit of mirin or sake to the marinade to introduce an additional layer of complexity to the flavor profile. Experiment with different types of honey or soy sauce to fine-tune the sweetness and umami balance to your liking.

Step 1: Prepare the marinade

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the following ingredients:

  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons gochujang
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Add the sliced pork to the marinade and toss to coat. Set aside to marinate for 10 minutes.

Step 2: Stir-fry the vegetables

Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and stir for 30 seconds until fragrant. Then add the sliced onions and bell peppers and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until they start to soften.

Step 3: Cook the pork

Add the marinated pork to the skillet and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the pork is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.

Step 4: Serve

Serve the stir-fry over a bed of cauliflower rice and garnish with sliced green onions.
