Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Using scissors or a knife, roughly chop the smoked pork collar into bite-sized pieces. Don’t worry about making them too small, as slightly larger pieces add a nice texture.
Step 2
Chop the kimchi into pieces roughly the same size as the pork collar, making it easy to eat. If the kimchi pieces are too large, they can be cumbersome to stir-fry.
Step 3
Add the finely chopped green onion to a pan, drizzle with olive oil, and add the minced garlic. Stir-fry over medium-low heat for 30 to 40 seconds until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
Step 4
Once the aromatic oil is released, add the chopped smoked pork collar and stir-fry over medium heat for 2-3 minutes until lightly browned. The fat rendering out will add flavor.
Step 5
Add the chopped kimchi to the pan along with the oyster sauce, sugar, and black pepper. Increase the heat to high and stir-fry for 5 minutes until the kimchi softens and absorbs the flavors. Adjust the amount of sugar to suit your preference for sweetness and tartness.
Step 6
Add the cooked rice and use a spatula to break up any clumps, mixing it thoroughly with the ingredients. Reduce the heat to low to prevent the rice from burning.
Step 7
Finally, add the seaweed flakes, sesame oil, and toasted sesame seeds. Give it a final mix and stir-fry for another 1-2 minutes until everything is well combined and fragrant.
Step 8
Spoon the finished kimchi fried rice into a bowl and press it down firmly with a spoon. Then, invert the bowl onto a serving plate and gently tap to release the rice, creating a nicely shaped, round mound of smoked pork collar kimchi fried rice. Enjoy your delicious meal!
