Ingredients

Main Ingredients (2 servings)

  • Boiled Soba Noodles 1 bag (130g)
  • Green Onion 10cm
  • Eggs 2
  • Potato Starch 1 tbsp
  • Ground Pork 100g

Seasonings

  • [A] Dashi Powder 1 tsp
  • [A] Soy Sauce 1 tsp
  • [A] Sugar 1/2 tsp

Steps

  1. Rinse and loosen Boiled Soba Noodles (130g) under water, then drain thoroughly.
  2. Finely chop Green Onion (10cm) into small rounds.
  3. Crack 2 Eggs into a bowl and whisk them.
  4. Add the drained soba noodles, chopped green onion, Dashi Powder (1 tsp), Soy Sauce (1 tsp), Sugar (1/2 tsp), and Potato Starch (1 tbsp) to the bowl with the whisked eggs. Mix everything well.
  5. Place Ground Pork (100g) in a frying pan and cook over medium heat until browned. This step is key! Pre-cooking the pork ensures it's cooked through without worrying about timing.
  6. Add the cooked and browned ground pork to the soba and seasoning mixture from Step 4. Mix thoroughly to combine evenly.
  7. Using the fat rendered from the pork, heat the frying pan over medium heat. Add more oil if needed.
  8. Pour the mixed ingredients into the frying pan, forming a circle about 20cm in diameter. Cook until the bottom is golden brown. This is a crucial step! If it's browned and slides easily, it's ready.
  9. Carefully slide the browned mixture onto a plate, cover with the frying pan, flip, and return it to the pan. Reshape into a circle if it has collapsed.
  10. Cook the other side until golden brown.
  11. Cut the finished Crispy Pan-Fried Soba with Ground Pork into bite-sized pieces and arrange on a plate. This is where the magic happens! The soba will have a chewy texture and be incredibly delicious. Using the pork fat infuses the entire dish with flavor. The Japanese-style seasoning complements the soba perfectly, making it enjoyable on its own. It's also delicious with a sprinkle of ichimi togarashi (Japanese chili powder) or a dollop of mayonnaise.
