Method

  1. Heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Brown the pork on both sides in the oil, then transfer it to a large casserole dish. Deglaze the pan you used for browning with the rice wine or Sherry and add it to the casserole. Add the ginger and garlic. Trim the ends off the 8 fat spring onions and add these to the pan whole along with the chilli, stock, miso paste (if using) and soy sauce. Bring everything to a simmer, then cover and put the casserole in the oven for 2 hrs.
  2. Remove the lid from the casserole and cook for a further 20 mins. Chop the 4 thinner spring onions and add them to the casserole just before serving with steamed rice and bok choi.

    This was really tasty, made it with chinese style red cabbage. Used pork shoulder so was quite cheap too!

    This is delicious, lovely tender pork with a subtle kick of ginger (though I only used 50g ginger), nice with plain rice or noodles. A regular midweek meal in our house.

    I added a splash of rice vinegar (~1tbsp) as well as the rice wine for a bit of a tang, and more chillies and this was delicious.

    Love this recipe. Have served it at dinner parties and it was a hit. I use dried ginger instead of fresh and it still tastes great.
