  • Sweet and Savory Pork with Daikon
Stir-fried pork and thinly sliced daikon simmered in a rich, caramelized sauce and finished with fresh green onions.

Sweet and Savory Pork with Daikon

Thinly sliced pork and daikon are sautéed together, then simmered in a sweet-savory glaze made with mirin, soy sauce, and oyster sauce. The daikon turns tender with a slight bite, the sauce becomes glossy, and the whole dish comes together quickly. It’s simple, comforting, and great with a bowl of steamed rice.

Cooking instructions

  1. 1.

    Peel the daikon radish, cut it in half lengthwise if it’s very thick, then slice into half-moons or rounds about 4 mm thick.

  • 2.

    Slice the pork thinly, about the same thickness as the daikon, so it cooks quickly.

  • 3.

    Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium heat, add the daikon, and cook for 5–6 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  • 4.

    Push the daikon to one side of the pan. If needed, add a little more oil, then add the pork. Cook everything together for about 7 minutes, until the pork is about 80% done, stirring and flipping the daikon occasionally to prevent it from burning.

  • 5.

    Add the soy sauce, oyster sauce, mirin, and sugar. Stir well to coat everything in the sauce, then simmer for another 3–4 minutes, until it slightly thickens.

  • 6.

    To serve, divide the dish among plates and garnish with sliced green onion. Serve with steamed rice as a complete meal, if you like, or enjoy it on its own.
