Method
Rinse the rice, cover with 150 ml water, add 1 g salt, and cook for 12–15 minutes until tender, then leave covered for 5 minutes.
Slice the pork1 thinly, mix with the teriyaki sauce and pepper, and leave for 10 minutes.
Drop the broccoli4 into boiling water for 3–4 minutes until bright and tender with a slight crunch.
Cut the bell5 pepper into strips and sauté in half the oil for 3–4 minutes until lightly browned.
Heat the remaining oil and fry the pork1 for 5–6 minutes, until the slices are cooked through and the sauce has thickened.
Spoon the rice into a bowl as the base, then arrange the pork1, broccoli4, and bell5 pepper in sections.
Drizzle with the pan sauce from the meat and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Tips
- Why it works
- Slice the pork thin and marinate it for 10 minutes so the teriyaki soaks in evenly and the meat stays juicy when fried. If you skip this, the meat will be dry or raw in the middle.
- Substitutions
- Replace the frozen broccoli with 100 g fresh, blanched for 2 minutes. You can skip the sesame seeds if you don't have them, but the flavor will be less rich.
- Common mistakes
- If the rice is clumped or dry, you didn't let it rest under the lid after cooking. It should be fluffy, with separate grains.
- Storing and reheating
- Keep in the fridge for 3 days. Reheat in the microwave for 2 to 3 minutes with the plate covered so the sauce doesn't dry out. Don't freeze, the rice will get mushy.
- Serve with
- Serve with lemon wedges to brighten the teriyaki flavor. Good for a quick dinner after work when you want something filling without long cooking.
