A budget-friendly, easy, and voluminous recipe for "Crispy Pork and Bean Sprouts" using bean sprouts and thinly sliced pork.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients (2 servings)

  • Bean Sprouts 1 bag (200g)
  • Thinly Sliced Pork 200g
  • Egg 1
  • Potato Starch 2 tbsp

Seasonings

  • Salt (to taste)
  • Pepper (to taste)
  • [A] Soy Sauce 1.5 tbsp
  • [A] Mirin (Sweet Rice Wine) 1.5 tbsp
  • [A] Sugar 2 tsp
  • [A] Grated Garlic 1 tsp

Steps

  1. In a bowl, combine Soy Sauce 1.5 tbsp, Mirin (Sweet Rice Wine) 1.5 tbsp, Sugar 2 tsp, and Grated Garlic 1 tsp, and mix well.
  2. Lightly loosen the Bean Sprouts 1 bag (200g) by massaging the bag from the outside. This is a tip to reduce washing and make cooking easier.
  3. Finely chop the Thinly Sliced Pork 200g and place it in a separate bowl.
  4. To the bowl with the chopped pork, add the beaten Egg 1, Salt (to taste), Pepper (to taste), and Potato Starch 2 tbsp, and mix well.
  5. Add the loosened Bean Sprouts to the pork bowl and mix thoroughly until everything is evenly combined. This is a tip: mixing the pork with egg and starch acts as a binder, making it easier to hold together.
  6. Lightly oil a frying pan and heat over medium heat.
  7. Gently shape the pork and bean sprout mixture into flat circles with your hands and place them in the heated frying pan. This is a tip: lightly shaping with your hands helps the ingredients stick together and makes them easier to form.
  8. Place any remaining bean sprouts from the bowl on top of the ingredients already in the frying pan to use them all up. This is a tip: if the bean sprouts start to separate, put them back on top of the cooking ingredients.
  9. Cook over medium heat until a golden brown crust forms on the bottom.
  10. Flip the ingredients once browned.
  11. Cover the pan and steam-grill over medium-low heat for 3 minutes. This is a tip: steam-grilling ensures the ingredients are cooked through and become moist, tender, and juicy.
  12. Re-mix the sauce ingredients that were prepared earlier.
  13. Pour the mixed sauce over the steam-grilled ingredients in the frying pan.
  14. Heat over medium to medium-high heat, cooking until the liquid reduces and a sweet and savory sauce coats everything. This is a tip: the teriyaki-style sweet and savory seasoning pairs well with both pork and bean sprouts.
  15. Plate and serve. Enjoy!
