Before cooking the pork and vegetables, we need to prepare the rice for our donburi. You can follow our online rice recipe to find out how to make perfect sticky Japanese rice. If you really don’t want to spend too much time with rice preparation, you can try our microwavable rice, convenient and tasty!

While the rice is cooking, you can cut your pork meat and vegetables into slices. To get your pork sliced really thin, freeze it first and then slice, either with a meat slicer, or a very sharp knife.

Grab your frying pan, add a little cooking oil and start cooking the vegetables over a medium heat. Once they are almost done, add the pork, sugar, soy sauce and cooking sake. Mix everything together in the pan and continue cooking before finally adding the gochujang spicy miso paste. A quick drizzle of sesame oil added just after you remove the heat will add a delicious aroma to your spicy pork don.

The only thing left now is to serve your spicy pork on a bowl of rice and enjoy!
To balance the taste of gochujang miso, try a glass of shochu, a delicious Japanese type of alcohol that is a somewhat like a cross between sake and umeshu plum liqueur. If you prefer non alcoholic drinks, try an oolong tea instead.
