Ingredients
- 400 grams pork rib chops (¾-inch thick)
- 30 grams ginger (peeled and grated)
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons sake
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon Potato Starch
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- scallions (chopped, for garnish)
Instructions
- Rub 30 grams ginger and ¼ teaspoon salt onto both sides of 400 grams pork rib chops. Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour to marinate.
- To make the sauce, combine 2 tablespoons sake, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, and 1 tablespoons honey in a bowl.
- When you're ready to make your shogayaki, use paper towels to pat the pork chops dry and scrape off any large clumps of ginger.
- Dust both sides of the pork with a thin, even layer of 1 tablespoon potato starch.
- Preheat a frying pan over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon vegetable oil and pork chops and fry them until they've started to brown (~2 minutes).
- Flip the ginger pork over and fry the second side until golden brown (another 2 minutes).
- Flip the chops back over, and use a paper towel to wipe out as much excess oil from the pan as possible. Then, turn up the heat to high.
- Pour the sauce into the pan and glaze the ginger pork chops by flipping them over repeatedly in the boiling sauce until they're coated in a thick, shiny layer.
- Serve the shogayaki whole, or let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it up. Garnish with chopped scallions.
