Reviews
Using cooked pork and raw onions didn’t work too well.
The onions are still very crunchy and the meat is well done.
We enjoyed this very much. I used the broiler instead and it worked well. I will be making this again tonight. The porkchops in creamy champagne sauce works very well with this to produce the leftovers needed to make this dish quickly. Enjoyed the rice too, although my children didn’t care for the curry.
I did not have the leftover pork or rice, but tried this by cooking the rice first and then following the steps. Although the flavor was great, I know that using leftover rice would result in a better texture because it would start a little drier. I also skipped the sesame seeds and onions, just cooking the pork cubes in the teryaki sauce. All in all, a very easy dinner with nice flavors that my family enjoyed.
I cook very southern, and im not really sure what to think about this dish. It was good but I think that mashed taters and Fried chicken among other traditions down here have taken my taste buds. to say the least it was different. I think that we will have to be in a special mood to try this again.
Everyone ought to try this. this was very very good
