konnichiwa it's Nami from just one cookbook
today I'm excited to share a recipe that was featured in kodoku no gurume
in this popular Japanese drama the main character dines at real-life restaurants in Japan
in one of the episodes the main character Goro-san enjoys this delicious ginger pokeberry
any variation of ginger pork cut to be one of my favorite Japanese dishes
it's so easy to put together now let's get started
In a bowl or a liquid measuring cup, combine 3 Tbsp sake, 3 Tbsp mirin, 2 tsp sugar, and 2 Tbsp soy sauce
mix well
cut off the core of the 1/4 cabbage and shred the cabbage into thin slices
cut one negi (green onion/leeks) as much as you like to use
here I use about 2-3 Tbsp of chopped negi for one serving
grate the ginger until you have about 1 tsp for one serving
heat a non-stick frying pan on medium high heat
place 8 oz pork belly slices without too much overlapping
once the oil starts to release from the pork, add in the sauce
add the grated ginger and chopped negi
mix the ginger and negi in the sauce
flip the meat once in a while to cook thoroughly
place shredded cabbage on a serving plate and transfer the ginger pork belly and sauce
serve immediately
in the episode iseya shokudo diner served side dishes
pickled tomatoes
simmered bamboo shoots
