Ingredients

  • 10 oz ground pork
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp mirin
  • 2 cups cooked white rice
  • 2 whole eggs
  • ½ cup pickled mustard greens
  • 2 cups, chopped bok choy or spinach

Instructions

  1. 1

    Bring a small pot of water to boil. Gently lower eggs in and cook for 6 minutes for jammy yolks.

  2. 2

    Heat oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high. Brown ground pork, breaking it apart with a spoon, ~4 minutes.

  3. 3

    Pour in soy sauce and mirin. Stir constantly until the sauce darkens and coats the pork, ~2 minutes.

  4. 4

    Push pork to the side. Add chopped bok choy to the empty space and toss until wilted, ~90 seconds.

  5. 5

    Divide cooked rice between two bowls. Top each with half the pork mixture and greens, then a peeled soft-boiled egg.

  6. 6

    Scatter pickled mustard greens over top. Serve immediately.
