Katsudon
Japanese fried breaded pork cutlet (tonkatsu) joins eggs in sweet-salty broth, and the combo goes over a bowl of rice. It’s hard not to fall in love with Japanese food with dishes like katsudon.
Recipes with pork
Kimchi soup with pork and tofu
It’s not jjigae (which is a stew) and it’s not traditional Korean kimchi soup either. The heat is milder, there’s a subtle sweetness and the soup base is decidedly Japanese.
Sweet sour ground pork stew with tomatoes, chilies and sultanas
A spin on Filipino menudo, the addition of green chilies and bird’s eye chilies makes it a spicy dish. Sweet sultanas provide a counterbalance to the heat of the chilies.
Spaghettini with chorizo, asparagus and cherry tomatoes
A piece of chorizo is sliced, browned, and tossed with cooked pasta and vegetables sauteed in olive oil. A colorful and tasty one bowl meal that cooks in ten minutes.
Skewered pork belly teriyaki
Bacon-cut pork belly slices are rolled, skewered, seared and braised in teriyaki sauce. Enjoy with rice and cabbage salad.
