Ginger Honey Pork with Tagine-style Donabe


I made a quick and healthy pork dish with my tagine-style donabe, "Fukkura-san". Kurobuta pork but slices were marinated in sake, soy sauce, and honey for about 15 minutes.

In the skillet of "Fukkura-san", the ingredients were assembled...there were kabocha, marinated pork, asparagus, and shiitake mushrooms. They were cooked together for about 7 minutes, then I added the reserved marinade, grated ginger, and mizuna. That's it! You can find the recipe on toiro's website. It's so easy and tasty, so hope you will try it sometime.

There are a lot of vegetables in this dish, so you can enjoy the balanced nutrients in this one dish. Condiments are always nice, too.

Rice was, as always, cooked with the double-lid donabe rice cooker, "Kamado-san". I made the half-and-half white and brown rice. It was so fluffy and steamy.

I also made a side dish, which is my regular soybean "Gomoku-ni" stew. It was made with the soup & stew donabe, "Miso-shiru Nabe". When the beans are cooked with this donabe, they come out so rich and deep in flavor. You can also find the recipe for this dish on toiro's website.

I love my donabe life very much.
