Warm Vegetables with Oyster Flavored Meat Miso
- 100 to 120 grams Ground pork (or mixed beef and pork)
- 1/2 large Onion
- 1/2 clove Garlic
- 1 piece Ginger
- 1 tbsp Vegetable oil
- 2 tbsp Sugar
- 2 tbsp Miso
- 1 tbsp Oyster sauce
- 1 tbsp Sake
- 2 Potatoes
- 1/4 Kabocha squash
- 1/2 Carrot
- 2 Eggplants (slim Japanese type)
- 3 leaves Cabbage
- 6 cm Daikon radish
- 15 Snow peas
- For the oyster meat miso Mince the garlic, ginger and onion.
- Heat oil in a pan and saute the garlic and ginger until fragrant.
- Add the onion and saute until soft.
- Add the ground meat and cook until crumbly.
- When the meat is cooked through, add the ingredients, and simmer over low heat for 3 to 5 minutes while stirring.
- Transfer to a serving dish.
- The oyster flavored meat miso is done.
- For the warm vegetables Wrap the potatoes individually in plastic wrap, and microwave until soft.
- Remove the plastic wrap as soon as they're done, and peel while still hot (you can do this easily with your hands).
- Cut into 4 pieces.
- I used young potatoes, so I left the skins on.
- Peel a carrot and cut into bite sized pieces.
- Wrap in layers of moistened paper towels and microwave on a plate.
- When the carrot pieces are soft, transfer onto another plate.
- Microwave the kabocha squash, daikon radish, cabbage, snow peas, and eggplant in the same way.
- Arrange the vegetables on a serving plate with the meat miso on the side, and it's done!
- Spoon the sauce over the vegetables to eat.
- You can steam or boil the vegetables instead of microwaving.
- The eggplants could be grilled.
- I recommend using lotus roots, bamboo shoots, or boiled eggs.
- To cook the snow peas, peel off the fibrous strings, rub with a little salt before microwaving, then soak in cold water to stop the cooking.
- This will keep the luscious green color of the peas.
