Steps
- Place the pork belly slices 200g in a bowl. Sprinkle with 1 tbsp cooking sake and 1/2 tsp salt. Gently break apart the pork to coat it evenly with the seasonings and let it sit for about 5 minutes.
- Tear the cabbage 200g into bite-sized pieces by hand.
- Add the torn cabbage to boiling water and blanch for about 30 seconds.
- Drain the blanched cabbage in a colander. (Key Tip!) For the tougher core parts of the cabbage, boil for about 2 minutes for a softer texture.
- In the same pot, cook the pork, which has been coated with sake and salt, in batches, spreading it out slightly.
- Lightly boil the pork for 30 seconds to 1 minute until cooked through. Drain in a colander and discard any excess water.
- Place 2 tbsp mirin in a microwave-safe container and heat for 50 seconds at 600W to evaporate the alcohol.
- Add 1/2 tsp sugar and 1 tbsp miso to the heated mirin and stir until well combined.
- Further mix in 1 tbsp mayonnaise, 1 tsp grated garlic, and 1 tbsp ground sesame seeds to create the sesame miso sauce.
- Arrange the drained cabbage and pork on a plate.
- If you prefer to eat it warm, lightly microwave the arranged cabbage and pork.
- Pour the prepared sesame miso sauce over everything.
- (Key Tip!) The sauce is made in a generous amount. If you find it too light, feel free to add more to your liking.
- Sprinkle with a pinch of toasted sesame seeds to finish. Enjoy!
