Samgyeopsal is a dish made of pork belly which is served and prepared like galbi. It is sometimes cooked in grill and also served with kimchi. The most common ingredients for this dish are onions, garlic and sesame oil. Lettuce is used for wrapping to make more presentable. If you are going to make this dish but you do not have a grill, you can use skillet or pan. The Koreans like to accompany this dish with their favorite drinks like Soju. If you are having a party in your backyard, I suggest to use the outdoor grill so that you can cook as many as possible since grill can accommodate more than what a pan can. Here is the simple recipe of Samgyeopsal:
