One-Pot Sliced Pork Udon

I made this impromptu one-pot sliced pork udon using available ingredients in the kitchen. These days, no planning is the best plan! My pot contains thinly sliced pork (shabu shabu cut), maitake mushroom, napa cabbage, carrot and chewy udon. Just put everything together in a wide and shallow casserole and simmer with an instant dashi soup pack! This makes a great one-pot meal for one, but you can also add more sliced pork as a sharing dish on the table.

Marinated Shabu Shabu Pork Slices
This is an optional step. Recently my taste buds changed, and I became slightly more sensitive to unmarinated meat. So, if you want to, spread out the shabu shabu sliced pork and drizzle ginger juice & sake. Let it sit for 5 minutes. This works well to remove any strong smell from the meat.

While casserole is still hot, add a piece of coral lettuce to the hot soup. Garnish the sliced pork with sprinkled 7-spice powder and chopped spring onion. Prepare a saucer of ponzu sauce dip with spring onions to dip the ingredients.
