Korean-Style Pulled Pork Sandwich
This sandwich is bursting with Seoul-inspired flavour. You'll spice pork with gochujang (a Korean chilli paste) and cook until tender. Serve in a soft brioche bun, with sesame potatoes and a gingery spring onion mayo.

Cooking instructions
Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.
Preheat the oven to 200°C/ 180°C (fan)/ gas 6
Transfer your BBQ pulled pork to an oven-proof dish, draining away half of the juices
Top with your gochujang paste (can't handle the heat? Go easy!) and a 1 tsp [1 1/2 tsp] [2 tsp] sugar, then cover with tin foil and put the dish in the oven for an initial 30 min
Chop your potatoes (skins on) into bite-sized pieces and add to a baking tray (or two!)
Drizzle with your toasted sesame oil and a pinch of salt, give everything a good mix up, then put the tray[s] in the oven for 25-30 min or until the potatoes are crisp and cooked through
Once cooked, sprinkle over your black sesame seeds – these are your sesame roasted potatoes
Bash your cucumber with a rolling pin and chop it into large, bite-sized pieces
Tip: Bash the cucumber in its bag to avoid mess. By bruising the cucumber, the water is drawn out more easily!
Top, tail and slice your radishes
Add the sliced radishes and bashed cucumber to a large bowl with a drizzle of vegetable oil, your soy sauce and half your rice vinegar (you'll use the rest later!)
Give everything a good mix up – this is your quick-pickled salad
Trim, then slice your spring onion[s] finely
Add the sliced spring onion to a bowl along with your ginger & garlic paste and your mayo
Add the remaining rice vinegar, 1 tbsp [1 1/2 tbsp] [2 tbsp] cold water and a grind of black pepper then mix well – this is your spring onion & ginger mayo
After an initial 30 min, remove the dish with the pulled pork from the oven and discard the tin foil
Pull the pork apart using two forks and mix everything through the juices
Return the dish to the oven for 5-6 min further or until the sauce has been absorbed and the pork has started to crisp – this is your Korean-style pulled pork
Slice your brioche bun[s] in half (if required!)
Heat a large, dry, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) over a medium heat and add the brioche halves, cut-side down
Cook for 2-3 min or until toasted and charred, then set aside until serving
Sandwich the Korean-style pulled pork, some spring onion & ginger mayo and a little quick-pickled salad between the toasted brioche halves
Serve the sesame roasted potatoes, remaining quick-pickled salad and remaining spring onion & ginger mayo to the side
Enjoy!
