Top 5 dishes made from thinly sliced Pork *cut into bite-size pieces
1 . Okra & Pork Rice Bowl
Okra & Pork Rice Bowl
The main ingredient of this dish is Okra. It surprises me to know that there are many people who have never cooked OR eaten Okra. My favourite cooking method is deep-frying, but stir-frying would be the easiest. Today I stir-fried Okra with Pork, but you can use Chicken instead. As I always eat the dish with Rice, I made it into a rice bowl. Quick and easy, and delicious!
Ingredient
1 teaspoon
Sesame Oil
1/2 tablespoon
Sugar
1/2 tablespoon
Soy Sauce
1/2 tablespoon
Oyster Sauce
1/2 tablespoon
Sake (Rice Wine) OR Water
Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Combine all the Sauce ingredients in a small bowl.
* Step 2
Heat Sesame Oil in a frying pan over medium heat, cook Okra for a few minutes, add Pork, and stir until Pork is nicely browned. Add the Sauce and stir to combine.
* Step 3
Half fill a bowl with warm Cooked Rice, cover it with the Okra and Pork mixture, and enjoy.

2 . Ginger Pork Mazegohan
Ginger Pork Mazegohan
I had a pack of 350g thinly sliced Pork. I wanted to cook a dish for 4 servings. I could have stir-fried the Pork with vegetables, but I didn’t have suitable vegetables. I only had salad vegetables. Then, I decided to cook this ‘Mazegohan’. 'Mazegohan’ is a Japanese dish of Rice. Rice and other ingredients are cooked separately and mixed together after they are cooked. I added plenty of Ginger. So tasty!!!
Ingredient
1/4 teaspoon
Salt
1 teaspoon
Kombu (Kelp) Dashi Powder *optional
1 teaspoon
Oil
2 tablespoons
Soy Sauce
2 tablespoons
Mirin
1/2-1 teaspoon
Sugar
Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Wash Rice and place in the rice cooker’s inner pot. Add Water up to the 2-cups marking, add Kombu (Kelp) Dashi Powder, Ginger and Salt, and gently stir. Press ‘COOK’ button to start cooking.
* Step 2
Combine all the Sauce ingredients in a small bowl. Alter the amount of Sugar to suit your taste. I added 1 teaspoon today.
* Step 3
When the Rice is cooked, add Edamame (OR Peas), and let them steamed for 10 minutes.
* Step 4
Cut thinly sliced Pork into bite-size pieces. Heat Oil in a frying pan over high heat, cook Pork. When cooked, add the Sauce, and cook until the sauce is gone and Pork is slightly caramelised.
* Step 5
Add the Pork to the Rice, then mix to combine roughly. Sprinkle with Spring Onion, and serve.

3 . Pork & Shiitake Soba Noodle Soup
Pork & Shiitake Soba Noodle Soup
It is a custom for Japanese to eat Soba Noodle Soup on New Year’s Eve. However, it can be very hot at this time of year in Melbourne where I live, and I often cook a cold dish of Soba Noodles. But it is always nice to have a hot dish like this one. I enjoyed this Soba Noodles as we had unusually cool weather this year.
Ingredient
4 tablespoons
Mirin
4 tablespoons
Soy Sauce
Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Place all the Soup ingredients in a saucepan and bring to the boil over medium heat. Add Pork, Shiitake and hard parts of Spring Onion(s), and cook for a few minutes, then add soft parts of Spring Onion(s).
* Step 2
Meanwhile, cook Soba Noodles according to the instruction. I cooked my Dry Soba Noodles in boiling water for 4 minutes. *Note: DO NOT add Salt to the water.
* Step 3
When Soba Noodles are cooked, drain, and place in serving bowls. Pour over the hot soup, add some Shichimi (Japanese Chilli Spice Mix), and enjoy.

5 . Wombok Okonomiyaki
Wombok Okonomiyaki
Japan’s famous savoury pancake ‘Okonomiyaki’ is commonly made with Cabbage, but other vegetables can be used, and I have shared my recipes on this website. Today I used Wombok, and it worked fine. The texture of the thick white parts of Wombok is lovely in Okonomiyaki, however, ‘Wombok Okonomiyaki’ tends to become wet. You need to alter the amount of water to use when you make the batter.
Ingredient
1
Egg
5 tablespoons
Self-Raising Flour OR Plain Flour
3-4 tablespoons
Water *add extra if required
1-2 teaspoons
Oil
Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Clean Wombok leaves. If you wash them with water, drain well, then slice into 6-7mm thick pieces.
* Step 2
Combine Egg, Flour, Water and Dashi Powder in a mixing bowl, add Wombok, and mix to combine. *Note: The batter should be thick and just enough to combine Wombok.
* Step 3
Heat Oil in a frying pan and cook Pork on both sides. Cover with the Wombok mixture and form a pancake.
* Step 4
Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, then flip the pancake over, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until cooked through. You may turn the pancake over a few times.
* Step 5
Place the pancake on a plate with the Pork on the top.
* Step 6
Dress with Okonomiyaki Sauce and Japanese Mayonnaise, and sprinkle with Aonori (optional). If you have Katsuobushi (Bonito Flakes), you may wish to sprinkle with it as well.
