Thank you to everyone who tried this recipe! When you add an egg, it tastes just like sukiyaki. The flavor is rich, so it’s great served over rice as a donburi bowl, too.
Recipe background:
I was planning to make something else, but since enoki mushrooms go well with bold flavors, I thought I’d try making it with the sweet and savory taste my husband likes.

Steps

1

Cut the pork into bite-sized pieces (if using pre-cut pork, you can leave as is). Trim the root end off the enoki mushrooms and separate them. In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, sugar, and mirin.
2

Heat the oil in a skillet. Add the pork and cook, then add the enoki mushrooms. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
3

Pour the sauce mixture over the pork and mushrooms. Simmer until the sauce thickens to your liking, then remove from heat.
4

You can serve as is, but it’s highly recommended to top with a soft-cooked egg. Break the egg over the top and enjoy!
