💡 Meal Prep Tips
Store the pork, sauce, and salad separately to keep things fresh. Assemble just before serving for best texture and flavor.
🧄 Spicy Pork
Start with lean pork mince and layer in flavor with gochujang, gochugaru, garlic, and a splash of soy and vinegar. Cook it in batches to build up a nice browning.
Shortcut: Blitz the aromatics and sauces together in a blender for a quick marinade.
🥣 Creamy Sesame Sauce
This dressing is where it all ties together—tahini, miso, vinegar, soy, and a hint of MSG. Add water gradually to reach that perfect pourable consistency. Silky, nutty, and umami-rich, this sauce pulls the dish into creamy, comforting territory.
🥗 Refreshing Herb Salad
Fresh coriander and mint bring brightness and balance, while cucumber adds a satisfying crunch. Optional: Chill the sliced veg in ice water for 5 minutes for an ultra-refreshing bite.
🍜 How to Serve
Boil your favorite noodles (soba, udon, or even ramen noodles work here), spoon on the spicy pork, drizzle generously with sesame sauce, and pile on the herb salad. Mix everything together and enjoy every spicy, creamy, crunchy bite.
