Rolled Ginger Pork Slices for Bento

In our household, we make ginger pork by rolling the meat for easier eating and a more satisfying texture. It's also delicious with pork scraps (o^^o)
The origin of this recipe
When cooked flat, my kids found it hard to eat, so I started rolling it for easier bites…(^_^;) Rolling also makes it easier to remove excess fat and gives a more satisfying chew.
Cooking Instructions
- 1
Grate the ginger (or use pre-grated from a tube) and mix with soy sauce and mirin.
- 2
Roll the pork with the less fatty side inside. (If using cornstarch, apply it here!)
- 3
Place the rolls seam-side down in a frying pan and sear the surface. *Cover the pan and steam for about 2 minutes for quicker cooking.
- 4
Remove excess fat with a paper towel while cooking through the center.
- 5
Once cooked through, add the sauce from step 1 to the edge of the pan and coat the rolls while turning them. It's ready to serve.
