I wanted a side dish of sweet potatoes to eat with rice, so I combined them with meat and came up with this sweet and salty stir-fry.

When heating the sweet potatoes in the microwave, be careful not to overcook or else they will break apart when sautéing. They should be on the firm side. Recipe by Komomomomo

Steps

1

Diagonally slice the sweet potato into 1 cm rounds (skins on), or into rounds, then julienne into 1 cm sticks (see photo) and soak in water. Chop pork into bite-sized pieces.
2

After soaking for about 10 minutes, transfer to a heat-resistant plate (leaving them wet), wrap in plastic wrap, then heat for 3 minutes in microwave (at 500 W).
3

Combine the ◆ ingredients.
4

Put about 1 teaspoon vegetable oil in a frying pan, and sauté the pork.
5

Once the pork is cooked through, add the sweet potato sticks from Step 2, and sauté while coating in oil released from the pork.
6

Stir the combined ingredients from Step 3 once more (since the katakuriko will settle to the bottom) and pour into frying pan in a circular motion to distribute the sauce evenly.
7

Sauté until seasoning evenly coats the sweet potatoes, and once they start to glisten, they're ready to serve.
