How to Make Japanese Ginger Pork Shogayaki

  1. In a bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger, and 2 tablespoons mirin.
  2. Add 1 pound thinly sliced pork (or beef) to the bowl and marinate for 15 minutes.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
  4. Remove the pork from the marinade, reserving the marinade.
  5. Sear the pork slices in the hot skillet for 2-3 minutes per side, until browned and cooked through.
  6. Pour the reserved marinade into the skillet and bring to a simmer, stirring gently to coat the pork. Cook for 1-2 minutes, until the sauce slightly thickens.
  7. Serve the Shogayaki hot over steamed Japanese rice with steamed cabbage or other vegetables of your choice.
