Pork blocks were on sale so I made simmered pork in a pressure cooker.

I didn't tie the pork with twine, parboil, marinate, or brown it beforehand. I did none of those things, and I still got tender, delicious simmered pork with no problems.
Please adjust the simmering time depending on your pressure cooker! I use a brand called Katsuryoku-gama from Asahi Kasei. Recipe by Youkorin

Steps

1

Make as many hard-boiled eggs as you would like to serve with the pork.
2

Put the block of pork and the ※ ingredients into a pressure cooker and bring up to pressure. Cook under pressure for 15 minutes!
3

Bring the pressure down, add the boiled eggs and simmer to reduce the sauce. Leave to cool.
4

When the pork has cooled down, slice it, transfer on a serving plate with the boiled eggs and serve!
5

Simmer coarsely chopped pork and sliced onion in the leftover cooking liquid and pour over rice to make a pork rice bowl!
6

Use the leftover broth from the butadon from step 5, to make shiro-ae (a tofu dish), and julienned burdock root to make "kinpira"!
