Roasted Beets with Walnuts & Miso Vinaigrette

beets

Since this is the season of root vegetables, here’s a recipe with beets. Ok, so roasting isn’t an age-old Japanese cooking technique, but I think you get better flavor this way. Alternatively, you can boil them, or if you need to save some time, you can even use the microwave. In this dish, the beets are topped with the ‘simple miso vinaigrette‘, toasted walnuts and chopped parsley.

Ingredients:

  • 3-4 small medium beets
  • parsley (chopped)
  • walnuts (toasted)
  • miso vinaigrette

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 375 F.
  2. Wash and trim beets then place in shallow roasting pan. Roast for about 30 minutes to one hour. Test them using a toothpick. When done remove from oven and set aside to cool.
  3. Toast beets either on a baking tray in oven, about 5 minutes, or in a frying pan on the stove.
  4. When the beets are cool, peel and cut into qaurters or smaller. Ideally, they should be easy to grab with a pair of chopsticks.
  5. Arrange on a plate, sprinkle with crushed toasted walnuts, drizzle on the miso vinaigrette and then garnish with chopped parsley.

Can't go wrong with fried pork 😁  うまっ😋  Serving: 2 people  INGREDIENTS:
¾ pound pork loin (cut into two large slices or four smaller slices)
1 cups of panko bread crumbs
¼ cup four
1 egg, well beaten with a tablespoon of cold water
Salt and pepper  2 cups of vegetable oil for deep frying  For the home-made Tonkatsu sauce:
2 tablespoons Worchester sauce
2 tablespoons ketchup
1 tablespoon soy sauce  DIRECTION:
Make the sauce by mixing the Worchester sauce, ketchup, and soy sauce in a small saucepan.  Heat the sauce until everything is well-combined.  Keep it warm.  Cut pork into either two large slices or four smaller slices.  The meat should be about ¼ inch-thick.  Tenderize the meat if necessary and cut slits into any fat or membrane so the meat will not curl as it deep-fries.  Lightly salt and pepper the pork. 
Dust the pork in flour, dredge them in egg mixture, then press them onto panko bread crumbs.  The pork should be covered completely in bread crumbs.
Heat the oil to 300 F and fry the pork one at a time, turning it as it brown's about 3 minutes total.  Take the pork out of oil and dry it in an oil drying rack or paper towel. 
Cut the pork into strips and serve them hot with home-made Tonkatsu sauce.  #cookjapanesefoodathome
