• 2 tablespoons soy sauce (30ml)

• 1 clove of garlic (optional)

Other ingredients

• 200g pork fillet, sliced thinly
• 4 leaves from a Chinese leaf cabbage
• 1-2 tablespoons vegetable oil, for frying

Equipment

• Mixing bowl
• Garlic press
• Frying pan

Serve

• Serve in a bowl on top of steamed rice

Instructions

Prep

1. Make the shogayaki sauce
2. Cut the cabbage leaves in to pieces about 5cm (2 inches) and set aside.
3. Slice the pork fillet thinly and set aside.

Shogayaki sauce

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the sugar and corn flour.
2. Add the sake, mirin, soy sauce to the sugar and cornflour.
3. Use a garlic press, to squeeze the ginger (and garlic, if using) into the sauce

Cooking

1. Marinate the sliced pork in the shogayaki sauce (no more than 10 minutes).
2. Add a tablespoon of oil to a frying pan and get it pretty hot.
3. Take the pork out of the marinade (but keep the marinade) and stir fry for about 2 minutes (it may be quicker or slower depending on how hot your pan is and how thick you have cut the pork).
4. Add the cabbage and stir fry for 1 minute.
5. Once the cabbage has wilted, add the marinating sauce and let it sizzle for a further 30 seconds to 1 minute, until the sauce has thickened and become a little more sticky.
