Ingredients
2 servings- Potatoes2 large
- Onion1/2
- Pork belly slices100g
- Yotsuba salted butter20g
- Parsleyoptional
- ★Miso1 tbsp
- ★Sugar1.5 tbsp
- ★Water100 ml
Directions
30 min- 1
Cut the potatoes into bite-sized pieces, slice the onion into wedges, and cut the pork belly slices into approximately 3 cm lengths. Finely chop the parsley if using.
- 2
Bring water to a boil in a pot and blanch the 100g pork belly slices. Drain in a colander and rinse quickly with water.
- 3
In the same pot, add the 2 large potatoes, 1/2 onion, and 100 ml water. Cover with a drop lid and simmer until a skewer passes easily through the potatoes.
- 4
Once the potatoes are tender, return the pork belly slices to the pot and simmer until the broth is reduced to one-third or less.
- 5
Add the ★ seasonings (1 tbsp miso and 1.5 tbsp sugar) and toss to coat everything evenly. Remove from heat.
- 6
Transfer to a serving dish, top with the 20g Yotsuba salted butter, and sprinkle with parsley if desired. Serve hot.
Tips
Blanching the pork beforehand removes excess scum and odor, resulting in a cleaner, more refined flavor. Adding the pork back when the potatoes are tender prevents the meat from falling apart and ensures a tender texture.
