Mince and cabbage saute

This is an another super easy recipe. It can be either a main or side dish. Although I used only cabbage and spring onions for vegetables this time, you can also add carrots, onions etc. Make sure to boil the sauce down until it has evaporated down to half its original volume, which concentrates the taste.

What you need today.....     (serves: 2)
  300g minced beef or pork
  1/6 cabbage, cut into 1cm thick
  2 cloves of garlic, grated
  2 cm ginger, grated
  1 spring onion, sliced roughly
  240ml water
  60ml soy sauce
  2 tbsp sake, mirin and white sugar
  Salt and black pepper to taste


     1. Mix water, sake, mirin and sugar in a small bowl. Set aside.

     2. Heat 1-2 tbsp of vegetable oil in a frying pan in medium heat. Add garlic, ginger and spring onions and cook until fragrant.

     3. Add mince and cook thoroughly in high heat. After that, add cabbage in the pan and cook for 30sec.

     4. Add the sauce and turn down the heat to low. Boil the sauce down until it's evaporated to half the volume (it takes a while).
