Today, I’m sharing a budget-friendly and super easy Ginger Minced Pork Rice Bowl recipe. It’s my go-to dish for a quick weeknight meal that doesn’t sacrifice flavor.
The main ingredients you’ll need are ground pork, ginger, scallions, and rice. Making this dish is a breeze. First, cook the ground pork and grated ginger in a large skillet over medium-high heat until the pork is browned.
Ingredients:
- 1 pound ground pork
- 1 tablespoon grated ginger
- 1 tablespoon oil
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 tablespoon rice cooking wine
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 4 stalks scallion, chopped
- 1 tablespoon roasted sesame seeds
- 4 cups cooked white or brown rice
Instructions:
- In a small container, whisk together the sugar, rice cooking wine, and soy sauce.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground pork and grated ginger. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until the pork turns brown, making sure to crumble the meat as it cooks.
- Stir in the seasoning mixture, making sure it’s well combined. Let it simmer for 2 minutes.
- Toss in sesame oil, roasted sesame seeds, and chopped scallions. Cook for another 30 seconds before removing from heat.
- Serve by placing rice in a bowl and spooning the ginger minced pork on top. Enjoy!
NOTES
- 1 cup of uncooked brown rice typically yields 4 cups of cooked brown rice.
- 1 cup of uncooked white rice typically yields 3 cups of cooked white rice.
This dish is quick, flavorful, and perfect for a weeknight meal!
