Make! Teriyaki pork

One of the many things I love to order at Japanese restaurants is meat or fish in a teriyaki sauce. It's also easy to make at home and although I've used pork this time, it goes with so many meats/proteins: think chicken, beef, salmon, tofu, etc etc.

I used 6 pork loin steaks, 1/2 cup soy sauce, 1/2 cup mirin, 1/4 cup sugar and a dash of sesame oil.

In a casserole dish, put the soy sauce, mirin, sugar and sesame oil. Warm over a medium heat and stir until sugar is dissolved. Sauce made!

Fry the pork steaks in a griddle pan for a few minutes on each side (I used vegetable oil and a little sesame oil).

Now add your pork steaks into the sauce in your casserole dish, bringing to a simmer. Put the lid on and allow the meat to simmer gently in the sauce for around 30 minutes.

I served this with stir-fried peppers, brown rice and spring onions. Ladle over some of the delicious sauce before serving, and bon appetit! One of those easy dishes that everyone seems to like.

    1. Thanks! :) It's so easy to make. You could use the same sauce over vegetables or tofu for the vegetarians in the family. It's also a nice extra to sprinkle some sesame seeds over the dish before serving. x
