Mom's Porkchops

Directions

1. 1
   Mix the ingredients marked with () and put in the roast pork after cutting it along the grain, let steep for 15 minutes.
2. 2
   Heat vegetable oil in a pan and cook both sides of the pork (At this point, spread the sauce on the pan to avoid burning).
3. 3
   The sauce will be used again later so don't throw it out!
4. 4
   Once the meat is cooked, pour the () sauce (leaving the heat on), add water and the crushed soup stock cube (it's easier if it's powdered) and let it simmer.
5. 5
   (If you take out the meat and just simmer the sauce, the meat may stay tender.)
6. 6
   Taste the sauce, and add a little salt and pepper if needed.
7. 7
   Leftover sauce goes especially well with lightly mashed potatoes.
8. 8
   How about adding a carrot stem leaf for garnish?
9. 9
   Recently, I've been making this without the soup stock (8/12 edit).
