Instructions:
1. Prep the Pork:
• Pat dry and season lightly with salt and black pepper.
2. Make the Ssamjang Sauce:
• In a small bowl, mix all ssamjang ingredients until well combined.
• Set aside for serving.
3. Heat the Grill or Pan:
• Use a tabletop grill or a cast iron pan over medium-high heat.
• No oil is needed. Pork belly has enough fat to render.

• Grill each side for 2–3 minutes until golden brown and slightly crispy.
• Add optional garlic slices or mushrooms to grill alongside if desired.
5. Cut into Bite-Sized Pieces:

6. Serve:

• Each bite: wrap rice + pork + kimchi + garlic/chili in a leaf with a dab of ssamjang.
