Ingredients needed 🛒1 servings
- pork belly 150g
- cabbage generously
- salt 1 pinch
- pepper a little
- minced garlic 0.5 tablespoon
- sugar 0.5 tablespoon
- oyster sauce 1 tablespoon
- tonkatsu sauce 1 tablespoon
- white rice 1 bowl
- green onion a little

Recipe 🍳
- Slice the cabbage thickly at about 2cm to maintain a crisp texture when cooked.
- Place both the pork belly and sliced cabbage directly into a dry pan without any oil.
- Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and a little pepper for seasoning, then stir-fry together until the pork fat renders out.
- Once everything turns golden brown, add minced garlic, sugar, oyster sauce, and tonkatsu sauce.
- Continue stirring until the seasonings are well incorporated and the cabbage becomes tender but still slightly crisp.
- Serve over warm rice and garnish with finely chopped green onion, pepper, and wasabi to finish.
- Thickly slice cabbage and stir-fry with pork belly in a pan, seasoning with salt and pepper.
- When the pork fat starts to render, add oyster sauce, tonkatsu sauce, garlic, and sugar, and cook through.
- Place on top of rice and garnish with green onion and wasabi to taste.
Cooking tips 💡
- Avoid slicing the cabbage too thin, as it will lose its crisp texture during cooking; thickness is key for the desired crunch.
- If using a leaner cut of pork instead of pork belly, add a small amount of cooking oil to the pan before starting.
