Cut the pork into 3 to 4 cm pieces, chop the kimchi coarsely with its stuffing, and slice the onion to 0.5 cm. The sauce uses 1 tbsp each of gochujang, soy sauce, oligosaccharide syrup, and sesame oil. Cook the onion in 1 tbsp cooking oil for 2 minutes, add the pork and kimchi for another 2 minutes, then pour in the sauce and reduce it for 3 minutes. If the kimchi releases enough liquid to make the topping loose, cook it for 1 additional minute before spooning it onto the rice. Finish the two bowls with 15 g sliced scallion. The recipe does not use an egg or any topping beyond the listed ingredients.
