The pan comes off the heat while a little sauce still pools at the bottom, and that sauce is spooned over the rice.
Ingredients
Instructions
- 1
Slice 120 g onion with the grain into 0.5 cm strips.
Finely mince or grate 1 tsp ginger so it can be stirred directly into the sauce.
- 2
Put 120 ml water, 2 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp mirin, 1 tbsp sugar, and the prepared ginger in a pan.
Heat over medium heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar, until the liquid comes to a boil.
- 3
Add the onion to the boiling sauce and cook over medium heat for 2 minutes.
When the onion edges turn translucent and the liquid returns to an even simmer, add the pork.
- 4
Add 280 g pork shoulder one slice at a time and spread the pieces so they do not overlap.
Cook over medium heat for 5 minutes, turning each slice once so both sides contact the sauce.
- 5
As the sauce reduces and coats the pork, check the liquid left in the bottom of the pan.
Turn off the heat when about 2 to 3 tbsp remains for spooning over the rice.
- 6
Divide 2 cups cooked rice between two bowls and arrange the pork and onion evenly on top.
Spoon the sauce remaining in the pan over the meat and rice in each bowl.
