Pork in soy sauce
Pork in soy sauce
One of the most beloved meat dishes in Asian cuisine is pork in soy sauce. Huge pieces of lean pork, fried until golden brown and then stewed in wine with the addition of natural soy sauce. Depending on the density of the sauce, you can cook pork with gravy or pieces of meat in soy glaze. Pork with soy sauce goes well with vegetable side dishes.
Pork meat, rice, noodles, soy sauce and hot peppers are some of the main products that are typical for Asian cuisines. Frying goods in very hot oil is widely used everywhere. Among the huge number of types of meat consumed in Asia, pork occupies a special place; it is prepared excellently by frying in a wok - a spherical metal frying pan. The most popular dish of pork is pork in sweet sauce.
Most dishes are prepared with the addition of soy sauce. A thick black liquid acquired by fermentation of soybeans is a natural mixture of a huge amount of microelements, amino acids, vitamins, and carbohydrates. Soy sauce amazingly enhances the taste of dishes. The history of soy sauce goes back more than 3 thousand years, and in ancient times, fermented soybeans were a rather expensive condiment.
Unfortunately, the modern industry mass-prepares soy sauce not by natural fermentation, but by hydrolysis, which affects the quality of the product.
Soy sauce is a regular ingredient in teriyaki, an unusual sauce, marinade and addition to almost all dishes. Soy sauce pork and teriyaki pork are somewhat identical, but teriyaki is quite sweet because it contains sugar and mirin.
Pork in soy sauce cooks quickly and requires no prep. Lean pork, natural light or black soy sauce, dry wine and spices - in fact, all the main ingredients.
Ingredients for pork in soy sauce
- Lean pork 0.5 kg
- Soy sauce 2-3 tbsp. l.
- Snow-white dry wine 100 ml
- Lard 1 tbsp. l.
- Salt, dark pepper, coriander Spices
How to cook pork in soy sauce
- Pork in soy sauce works better if the meat is not the fattest. The fat should be cut off - it is unnecessary. There is no need to prepare the meat in any special way for cooking. Taking into account that meat is usually frozen, it must be defrosted in advance. It is better not to force the defrosting process so that the pork does not lose meat juice and water. Perfect - transfer the frozen pork from the freezer to the refrigerator compartment, then the meat will defrost moderately and will not leak.

Pork in soy sauce
Such meat could be included in the menu of any Japanese restaurant. Unusual sweet-salty taste, spicy aroma. The meat gets quite tender. I think not many people will like it, but only those who love unique and noteworthy cooking solutions.

Recipe for Pork in Soy Sauce:
We cut the meat into pieces of random sizes (I cut them large). Place in a bowl, add salt (salt should be little, since the marinade and soy sauce filling will be salty on their own). Add spices and mix everything well so that any piece is moderately spicy. Add starch and mix again, any piece.
Pour over the meat: three tablespoons of soy sauce, a tablespoon of oil, a teaspoon of vinegar. Stir and leave to marinate (at least an hour).
Place the meat in a frying pan on heated oil (I have half laid out in the photo - 2 servings). Fry any piece on both sides until it has a crust.
Then reduce the heat and fry until perfectly cooked under the lid.
In a container (I have 150 g) mix a teaspoon of sugar (without a slide) with 100 g of hot water to dissolve the sugar.
50 g add soy sauce. Pour this into the frying pan with the meat, add another 100-150 grams of water, mix well, reduce the heat to low, cover with a lid and simmer for 15 minutes, until the water has evaporated and a thick gravy remains.
This is what cooked meat with gravy looks like.
You can serve it with any side dish - preferably porridge, potatoes or pasta. I like it best with rice. Attention! The side dish prepared for such meat should be salted to a minimum, and oil should not be added to it at all, because the meat gravy contains quite a bit of oil.
