Butadon
Butadon is a delicious Japanese dish made with thinly sliced and marinated pork that is cooked with onions and served over a bed of rice. The pork is typically simmered in a flavorful sauce made from soy sauce, mirin, and other seasonings.
Ingredients
- 1 pound pork thinly sliced (such as pork loin or pork belly)
- 1 large onion thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons mirin (Japanese sweet rice wine)
- 2 tablespoons sake (Japanese rice wine)
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 4 cups Japanese short-grain rice cooked
- Green onions (optional), for garnish
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.
