Cook time: 15 mins
Serves: 2
Ingredients
300g
thinly sliced pork loin medallions or loin steaks with the fat removed
Sea salt
Ground black pepper
1 tablespoon
cold pressed rapeseed oil or vegetable cooking oil
1
white cabbage, finely sliced
Steamed rice
For the marinade
1 tablespoon grated ginger or equivalent
½ small onion, peeled and grated
2 garlic cloves, peeled and grated
2 tablespoons light soy sauce
2 tablespoons mirin (optional)
2 tablespoons Saké (optional)
1 teaspoon sugar
Method
Step 1
Prepare the pork by putting each slice between two pieces of cling film and bash lightly and evenly with a saucepan or rolling pin. You want to make each slice as thin as possible – About 2-3mm.
Step 2
For the marinade, in a small bowl mix together the ginger garlic, onion, soy sauce, mirin and saké (if used). Cover and set aside.
Step 3
Marinate the pork for a few minutes. If you are using pork shoulder or something with a bit more fat, you can marinate for much longer, up to a week in the fridge.
Step 4
Meanwhile, cook some rice, according to the packet instructions.
Step 5
Heat a pan to medium heat and add a little oil. Place pieces of the pork around the pan in one layer, don’t overlap.
Step 6
Cook each side for about 1 minute on each side. The time varies with the thickness of your meat. Add any remaining marinade mixture to the pan and allow to simmer for a minute. Don’t leave it for too long or the pork will be over cooked and tough.
Step 7
Remove from heat and arrange on a plate, garnished with the cabbage. Pour over remaining sauce or serve it on the side.
Step 8
Serve immediately with the steamed rice.
