Ingredients
Main Ingredients (2 servings)
- Pork loin 2 slices (250g)
- Potato starch 1.5 tbsp
- Myoga ginger 2
- Green onions 2 stalks
- Shiso leaves 5
Seasonings
- Cooking Sake (Rice Wine) 1 tbsp
- Salt to taste
- [A] Mirin (Sweet Rice Wine) 2 tbsp
- [A] Ponzu Sauce 2 tbsp
- [A] Grated Ginger 1 tsp
- Toasted sesame seeds to taste
Steps
- Cut the pork loin (2 slices, 250g) into bite-sized pieces, about 2cm square.
- Place the cut pork in a cooking bag. Add 1 tbsp Cooking Sake (Rice Wine) and a pinch of salt, then massage to combine. Let it marinate for 10 minutes.
- Thinly slice the myoga ginger (2 pieces) into 2mm thick rounds. Let them soak in water for about 5 minutes.
- Finely chop the green onions (2 stalks) into small pieces.
- Trim the stems from the shiso leaves (5 leaves), cut them in half lengthwise, then julienne them.
- Thoroughly drain the water from the soaked myoga ginger.
- Combine the myoga ginger, green onions, and shiso leaves in a bowl and mix well.
- In a separate bowl, combine 2 tbsp Mirin (Sweet Rice Wine), 2 tbsp Ponzu Sauce, and 1 tsp Grated Ginger. Mix well.
- To the marinated pork, add 1.5 tbsp Potato Starch. Close the bag and shake to coat the pork evenly with the starch.
- Heat Vegetable Oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
- Arrange the starch-coated pork in the hot pan. Cook without moving until the bottom is set and browned.
- Flip the pork, cover with a lid, and steam-fry over low to medium heat for 2 minutes. (Secret Tip! Coating with potato starch prevents the meat from becoming tough and ensures a tender, moist result.)
- Pour the prepared sauce mixture over the steam-fried pork in the pan.
- Over medium to medium-high heat, cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens and coats the pork.
- Plate the cooked pork and the mixed herbs.
- Sprinkle toasted sesame seeds over the entire dish.
- If the flavor seems too light, adjust by drizzling with additional Ponzu Sauce.
