作法
- 把薑泥、醬油、味醂、清酒和糖在碗中攪勻。加入豬肉片，用筷子撥開讓每片都裹上。只醃五分鐘——醃太久薄豬肉會變硬。
- 在寬鍋中以中大火加熱油至微微閃光。下洋蔥翻炒一分鐘至剛變透明、邊緣帶褐。
- 把豬肉從醃料中夾出（醃汁保留）一層放入鍋中。不動煎九十秒——底部應上色。
- 翻面再煎30秒。倒入保留的醃汁。會嘶嘶冒泡並快速收乾。
- 在沸騰醬汁中翻拌全部60秒，直到醬汁變濃、裹覆每片肉、鍋幾乎乾。仔細看——從油亮到燒焦只在數秒之間。
- 每盤堆一團冰高麗菜絲，把豬肉滑到旁邊，配熱飯上桌。冰高麗菜對熱醬豬肉的質地對比，正是這道菜的精髓。

文化背景
薑燒豬肉是純喫茶（老式咖啡廳）和食堂（小餐館）的午餐——定義昭和時代日本工人階級飲食的料理。高麗菜絲不可少：它既切開油膩醬汁，也呼應豬排同樣的搭配邏輯。每個日本家庭比例略有不同；有些把薑磨到極細融入醬汁，有些保留泥狀以增加質地。手磨薑是細心廚師的標誌——預磨管裝薑泥不一樣。
