STIR-FRIED JAPANESE GINGER PORK

Stir-Fried Japanese Ginger Pork image

If you can't find daikon radishes, use a bunch of small red radishes when in season. I love this stir-fry because you can add any veggies you like, including spring onions, savoy, or Chinese cabbage... whatever you have handy.

Ingredients

1 daikon radish, peeled and cut into 2-inch sticks
2 tablespoons soy sauce

Steps:

Combine daikon radish, soy sauce, sake, sesame oil, ginger, garlic, and mirin in a large bowl. Add sliced pork; let marinate for 5 minutes.
