Ingredients
- 240g pearl barley
- 4 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp mirin
- 3 tbsp light brown soft sugar
- 80g ginger, grated
- 1 clove garlic, crushed
- 2 tbsp rice wine (or sake)
- 4 pork loin steaks, sliced lengthways into two
- 1 tbsp sunflower oil
- 1 onion, thinly sliced
- 40g cornflour
- 100g watercress
Method
Step 1
Cook the pearl barley, following pack instructions.
Step 2
Meanwhile, make the sauce by mixing the soy sauce, mirin and sugar together in a bowl.
Step 3
To make the marinade, squeeze the juice out of the grated ginger into a separate bowl, reserving the pulp to one side. Mix the ginger juice with the crushed garlic and rice wine. Place the pork on a large plate or dish, and pour the marinade over, leaving for 10 mins.
Step 4
Now stir the reserved grated ginger pulp into the sauce bowl.
Step 5
Heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium heat, then fry the onion until translucent.
Step 6
Remove the pork from the marinade, season, then dust with cornflour. Pour any leftover marinade into the sauce bowl.
Step 7
Fry the pork for 2-3 mins. Pour the sauce mixture into the pan and cook until it thickens and the pork is cooked through.
Step 8
When the pearl barley is cooked, drain and divide into four bowls and top with watercress.
Step 9
Cut the pork steak into slices and drizzle a little of the cooking sauce over each serving.
