Rei-Shabu - Cold Pork Shabu Shabu image

Provided by justcallmetoni

Time 25m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 lb lean pork loin, shaved or thinly sliced
6 -8 lettuce leaves
1 carrot
1/4 lb green beans
4 tablespoons vinegar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons mirin
1/2 teaspoon gingerroot, finely minced
4 tablespoons vinegar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons mirin
2 tablespoons sesame paste

Steps:

Before preparing entree, prepare one or both of the dipping sauces. This gives them a few minutes for the seasonings to meld.
Wash lettuce leaves and tear into bite-sized pieces. (Though more Korean than Japanese, I like to leave my lettuce leaves whole and use them as wraps. A little more messy, but a lot more fun.)
Cut carrot into julliene strips and trim green beans to 1 1/2 to 2 inch pieces. Boil water in a pan. Add green beans and cook for 2 or 3 minutes. Remove beans and plunge into cold water to stop cooking. Drain. Repeat same process with carrots, cooking for one minute.
Slice/shave the pork into very thin pieces. This is sometimes easier if the pork is placed in the freezer for a half hour beforehand. Cook thinly sliced pork in the water for a couple of minutes. Drain the water and cool the pork in a strainer.
Place lettuce, carrot, breen beans in a plate. Put boiled pork on the top.
Serve with dipping sauce.

Categories Japanese

Time 30m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

250 g thinly sliced pork loin or 1/2 lb pork loin
1/4 head lettuce, thinly shredded
1/2 medium onion, sliced into rings and halved soaked in ice water 30 mins to make them less overpowering
1 -2 bunch mizuna, chopped
1 (70 g) package radish sprouts (kaiware, but you can use broccoli sprouts)
1 japanese cucumbers, cut into matchsticks or 1/2 regular cucumber
5 -10 shiso leaves, thinly sliced (optional but so refreshing!)
3 tablespoons plain yogurt
2 tablespoons blended miso
1 tablespoon japanese mayonnaise
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1/3 teaspoon salt
1/2 garlic clove

Steps:

Starting with the onions (and then soaking in ice water while working on the others), carefully cut and prepare the salad ingredients and mix together in a bowl.
Bring a pot of water to a gentle boil and add the meat slices until cooked (it happens fast if they are thin) and then put them in a bowl of ice water and drain.
In individual bowls, arrange the salad and place a few slices of cold boiled pork on top.
Top with sesame dressing, sesame sauce or ponzu sauce made for shabu shabu, or try the delicious homemade sauce in this recipe (just mix the sauce ingredients together, and there you have it!).
Serve with rice and miso soup as the main dish or with other dishes as a side.
