PRIZE-WINNING POLYNESIAN PORK OVER RICE



Prize-winning Polynesian Pork over Rice image

I recently inherited my Great Aunt's recipe collection. This is a recipe from her recipe box that she clipped out of the Chicago Tribune. It had won the "$5 Favorite Recipe prize." From the splatters on the clipping, I imagine my Aunt enjoyed this one. These days,I might try browning the meat in a little olive oil instead of the bacon drippings. Despite the name, I doubt this is a traditional Polynesian dish, but rather is one inspired by Polynesian cuisine.

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

2 pounds pork shoulder, cut into about 4-inch chunks
2 tablespoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground chipotle
1 1/2 sweet onions, cut into chunks
1 jalapeno, seeded and chopped
1/2 pineapple, cut into chunks
1 cup jasmine rice
1 cup diced Spam
1/2 cup diced sweet onions
1 cup diced pineapple
1 1/2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3/4 cup mirin
1/4 cup sake
1/2 cup sugar
3/4 cup soy sauce
3/4 cup mayonnaise
Chopped green onions
Toasted black sesame seeds

Steps:

  • For the kalua pork: Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. Season the pork with the salt and chipotle. Grill the pork until charred, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer the pork, onion, jalapeno and pineapple to a pressure cooker and cook for 35 minutes.
  • For the pineapple rice: Bring the rice and 2 cups water to a boil in a pot. Turn the heat down to low, cover and simmer for 20 minutes.
  • In a saute pan over medium-high heat, add the Spam and cook until it gets some color and crisps up a bit, about 5 minutes. Then, add the onions and cook for 2 minutes. Add the pineapple and cook for 2 more minutes.
  • Once the rice is done, fold it into the pineapple mixture and season with the vinegar, salt and pepper.
  • For the unagi sauce: Bring the mirin and sake to a boil in a saucepan. Add the sugar and cook until dissolved. Then add the soy sauce and simmer for 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool for a few minutes, then mix 1/4 cup of the unagi sauce with the mayonnaise.
  • To assemble the bowl: Place the pineapple rice on the bottom of a bowl. Place some of the cooked pork on top of the rice. Add a dollop of the unagi mayonnaise over the pork and garnish with green onions and toasted black sesame seeds.
