Crispy Thinly Sliced Pork with Japanese Leeks and Salty Sauce
- 250 grams Thinly sliced pork (belly or loin)
- 1/2 tsp Grated garlic
- 1 tbsp Sake
- 1 tbsp Mirin
- 1 tbsp Soy sauce
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 pinch Ground pepper
- 1 the same amount of each, enough to coat the meat Rice flour + katakuriko (mixed together)
- 1 stalk; 3 to 5 stalks if using scallions Japanese leeks (scallions are OK too)
- 1 tsp Grated ginger
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1 pinch Ground pepper
- 2 tbsp Sesame oil
- Marinate the meat with ingredients.
- Massage the meat gently to speed up the process.
- Mix the rice flour and katakuriko and coat the meat.
- Shake off the excess, and deep fry in 170C to 180C until crispy.
- Don't fry for too long.
- If you over fry the pork, it will become brittle like crackers.
- As the slices are very thin, they meat will cook quickly in hot oil.
- Finely chop the leek or scallions and submerge in water.
- Drain and dry.
- Mix the ingredients together with the leek or scallions.
- Heat up the sesame oil in a thick bottomed small pan.
- When it starts to bubble, turn off the heat.
- Put the chopped leek or scallions mixed with the ingredients in a heatproof bowl, and pour the hot oil.
- It will sizzle.
- Mix well, taking care not to burn yourself.
- Pour plenty of the sauce over the hot crispy pork to finish.
- Serve with vegetables of your choice.
- I used broccoli sprouts this time.
