"buta no shougayaki" = ginger fried pork slices

Here's another favorite dish in Japan!

"Buta no shougayaki" = ginger fried pork slices

1 lb. (more or less) of thinly sliced pork (will most likely have to ask the butcher to thinly slice this for you)

cooking wine (sake) 1 tbsp

mirin (found in oriental aisle and used in most Asian recipes) 1 tsp.

soy sauce 1 tbsp.

honey 1 tsp

grated ginger (about 1 tsp.)

grated garlic (about 1 tsp.)

grated apple (about 2tsp.)

all of the measurements can be eyeballed and "about"

Mix all of the above into a bowl.

1. Heat the pan with some oil.

2. lightly flour the pork slices and dust off extra flour

3. brown pork in the pan

4. add the sauce and cook with meat until sauce is a little thickened

serve with thinly sliced cabbage and cucumbers and or tomatoes/orange slices

The sauce will add a gingery, but sweetness which tenderizes the pork slices.

A favorite in Japan!
