Quick and Easy Korean Pork Recipe

Using ground pork in recipes seems to be so underrated which is such a shame. Our ground Berkshire pork has an incredible depth of flavour and needs very little seasoning - we have one customer who just fries it up by itself - she says it doesn’t need anything added.

We use it in

• chilli’s,

• pasta sauces

• pies - especially shepherds pies,

• cabbage roll soup,

• tacos,

• meatballs,

• burgers and of course our own sausages.

Korean Pork is one of our favourite recipes - it's so delicious and quick to make with ingredients that are usually in the cupboard. - using my instant pot means it doesn't heat the kitchen up and I can set it and forget it - but it is easy to make on the stovetop or even a slow cooker.

Korean Pork

• 1/2 cup soy sauce

• 1/3 cup raw honey - I use creamed honey because it is all I have.

• 1/4 cup Berkshire pork stock - you can use chicken stock or I make my own

• 5 cloves minced garlic minced or 1 tbsp garlic powder (not garlic salt)

• 2 tablespoons sesame oil

• 2 tablespoons white vinegar

• 2 tablespoons freshly grated ginger or 1 tbsp ground ginger

• 1-2 tablespoons sriracha sauce (depending on desired heat)

• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder

• 1/2 teaspoon white pepper

• 2 lb ground Berkshire pork

Directions for instant pot

1. Use saute setting and Saute pork in sesame oil until browned 

2. Add rest of the ingredients.

3. Close the lid, and make sure the pressure release valve is turned to "SEALING"

4. Press the MEAT program button, and adjust the time to 5 minutes for ground beef/pork

5. Leave the instant pot release pressure naturally (about  25 minutes)

6. Serve with rice and garnish with spring onions if desired

You can make this on the stovetop just adjust the cooking time until the meat is tender.
