Teriyaki pork in 30 min ✌️

Teriyaki pork

Feeds 2 adults and 2 children.

Ingredients
2 pork tenderloins (approximately 800g)
sea salt and cracked white pepper, to season
2 tbsp peanut oil
3 garlic cloves
2 spring onions
1½ tbsp sake
60ml (¼ cup) soy sauce
60ml (¼ cup) mirin
1 tbsp honey
1 tsp sesame oil
To serve
2 cups (400g) short-grain rice
500ml (2 cups) water
2 cups finely shredded cabbage
1 tsp sesame oil
Sea salt, to season
2 tsp rice vinegar
1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
1 Lebanese cucumber
Method
Step 1: Cook the rice
Place the rice in a fine colander or sieve and rinse under cold water until the water runs clear.
Transfer to a rice cooker with the water and turn on to cook.
When the rice cooker finishes, leave the rice to steam for 10 minutes before serving.
Step 2: Cook the pork
Trim the silver skin from the pork tenderloins. Cut into medallions approximately 3cm thick. Season well with salt and white pepper.
Heat half the peanut oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook for 3 minutes, turning, until well seared on both sides.
Transfer to a tray and set aside
Step 3: Cook the sauce
Finely chop the garlic, then finely chop the whites of the spring onions. Thinly slice the greens of the spring onion and set aside.
Heat the remaining oil in the pan over medium heat. Add the garlic and spring onion whites. Cook for 1-2 minutes to soften.
Deglaze the pan with the sake, scraping off the frond from the base. Stir in the soy, mirin, honey and sesame oil. Stir well and bring to a simmer.
Return the pork to the pan and increase the heat to medium-high. Turn the pork in the sauce to glaze all over and cook for a few minutes, until the sauce thickens.
Turn off the heat and stir through the greens of the spring onions.
Step 4: Finish and serve
Combine the shredded cabbage and sesame seeds in a large bowl. Pour over the sesame oil, rice vinegar and season with some salt, toss well to combine. Thinly slice the cucumber.
To serve, divide some steamed rice between serving plates, then add some of the cabbage on the side and the cucumber.
Top with the pork and drizzle with the sauce.

  1. I just wanted to say, that looks great. But finished in under 30 mins, super unrealistic for most home cooks. Maybe if you had your partner prep everything beforehand, which likely took an extra 30 mins, then yeah.

  2. Maybe I'm the problem here but if i want a quick meal i usually dont have a sirloin at hand 🤔😅

  3. Love you Andy but lets be serious, the Venn diagram crossover of people trimming their own tenderloin and people watching tutorials on 30 min meals doesnt exist

  4. These time estimations I'm guessing are for professional chefs with their MISE EN PLACE already prepared, because preparing all of these thigns take me way more than 30 minutes.

  5. Lots of sugar, lots of salt with a sprinkle of green stuff. $40 of pork that tastes like meat candy. Yummy!

  6. That's exactly how cooking videos should be. No endless cutting, mixing and useless talking. And mainly without annoying music.
    Well done. Subscription.

  7. Can you make a series with all the same ingredients? I don’t want to buy 80% of the ingredients I will only use for this specific dish.
