Instructions

In a bowl, mix together soy sauce, mirin, sake, and sugar to make the marinade.
Add the sliced pork to the marinade and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes, but ideally for a couple of hours to enhance the flavors.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat.
Add the sliced onions and sauté until they become translucent and slightly caramelized.
Add the marinated pork slices to the pan and cook until they are cooked through and slightly browned.
While the pork is cooking, prepare the rice according to the package instructions.
Once the pork is cooked, pour any remaining marinade into the pan and let it simmer for a few minutes until it thickens slightly.
Serve the cooked rice into bowls and top with the pork and onion mixture.
Garnish with sliced green onions if desired.
