Ingredients

  • 1 daikon
  • 4 whole pork chops
  • 1 tbsp. oil or butter
  • 1 garlic clove (optional)
  • 1 tbsp. soy sauce

Directions

  1. Finely grate the daikon using a fine grater. Squeeze it with your hands to remove excess water. This step is important to prevent the daikon from becoming too watery when served.
  2. Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the pork and finely chopped garlic, and cook for about 5 minutes on each side. Adjust the cooking time according to the thickness of the pork. The pork should be well browned and cooked through.
  3. Remove the pork from the pan and set aside. In the same pan, add the soy sauce and reduce over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring well to recover all the cooking juices.
  4. Arrange the pork pieces on a plate. Add a portion of grated daikon to the side or top of the pork, as you prefer. Pour the hot soy sauce over the pork and daikon.
  5. Serve your daikon pork immediately with fragrant white rice. This tasty, well-balanced dish is ideal for a simple yet refined meal.
