Ingredients needed 🛒1 servings
- pork neck 1~2 pieces
- salt a pinch
- pepper a pinch
- potato starch powder as needed
- whole garlic handful
- egg 1
- tomato spaghetti sauce 2 tablespoons
- tonkatsu sauce 2 tablespoons
- parsley powder a pinch
Recipe 🍳
- Score the pork neck evenly in both directions to tenderize the meat.
- Sprinkle salt and pepper on both sides of the scored pork neck and gently tap to season.
- Evenly sprinkle potato starch over the surface of the pork neck, spreading it thinly and uniformly.
- Heat generous oil in a pan, add the starch-coated pork neck and prepared whole garlic, and cook over medium heat.
- Turn frequently to prevent burning the garlic; remove when golden brown. Continue cooking the pork neck until both sides are deeply browned and fully cooked, achieving a crisp texture.
- After removing the meat, crack one egg into the remaining oil and fry it like tempura, stirring gently to create a soft-boiled style omelet, then remove.
- Completely turn off the heat and wipe the pan clean with kitchen paper to remove all residual oil.
- Add 2 tablespoons of tomato spaghetti sauce, 2 tablespoons of tonkatsu sauce, and 2 tablespoons of water to the hot pan, stir well to form a smooth steak sauce.
- Place the grilled pork neck on a plate, generously pour the sauce over it, top with roasted garlic and egg, and sprinkle with parsley to finish.
- Score the pork neck, season with salt and pepper, and coat lightly with potato starch.
- Cook the garlic and pork neck together in a pan with plenty of oil until golden and crispy on both sides.
- Fry the egg in the remaining oil until soft-boiled, clean the pan, then mix tomato sauce, tonkatsu sauce, and water while the pan still holds residual heat to make the sauce.
Cooking tips 💡
- Cook the pork neck until it reaches a deep brown color just before actual charring to ensure the starch coating becomes properly crisp.
- Always use the pan's residual heat after turning off the flame to mix the sauce—this prevents separation or burning and ensures a smooth finish.
