When I cook Pork for a rice bowl like ‘Buta Don’, I usually season Pork with Soy Sauce. Today I didn’t use Soy Sauce. Instead, I used Lemon Juice and Salt for this one. It was delicious. I resisted the temptation to add Soy Sauce, but a little bit of Soy Sauce OR Fish Sauce can add extra flavour. Fatty Pork Belly and Lemon are a good combinmation.

Steps

5 minutes

1

Combine all the Sauce ingredients in a small bowl.
2

Heat a frying pan over medium to high heat, lightly oil it if necessary. If you use a non-stick pan, you don’t need it. Cook Pork until nicely browned. Use a piece of Paper Towel to remove excess fat in the pan.
3

Stir the Sauce, then add to the pan, and stir to combine. The Sauce should thicken instantly.
4

Half fill a bowl with warm Cooked Rice, cover it with the Pork mixture, sprinkle with ground Black Pepper, and enjoy. *Note: I added a wedge of Lemon for the presentation. You can squeeze it over the Pork if you like.
