Main Ingredients
Method
Preparation
Prepare the Pork
Roll the pork belly tightly and tie it with kitchen twine. This will help it maintain its shape while cooking.
Cooking
Braise the Pork
Add the rolled pork belly to the pot, then pour in the soy sauce, mirin, sake, and add sugar. Ensure the pork is fully submerged. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer.
Add Green Onions
Add the green onions to the pot. Cover and let it simmer for about 2-3 hours, turning the pork occasionally.
Cool and Slice
Once cooked, remove the pork from the pot and let it cool. Once cooled, slice it into thick pieces.
Serving
Serve
Serve the sliced chashu on top of ramen or with rice, drizzled with some of the braising liquid.
