STEPS
Begin by slicing your pork belly into thin slices.
In a bowl combine together 1tb of light soy sauce, 1ts of sesame seed oil, 1ts of gochujang (if you want it spicier add more) and 1/2tb of honey.
In a wok or pan on high heat add in a little bit of sesame seed oil and char your pork belly slices in batches. You do not want to fully cook them, you just want to give them some colour.
Return all your BEAUTIFULLY charred pork belly slices back into the pan and add in your gochujang mixture give it all a good mix. Let the mixture simmer for 5-8 minutes till the pork is fully cooked.
