Step 1
• Wash and dry produce. • In a small pot, combine rice, ¾ cup water (1½ cups for 4 servings), and a big pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to a low simmer. Cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes. • Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.
Step 2
• While rice cooks, trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. • In a small bowl, combine chili sauce, ponzu, half the vinegar (all the vinegar for 4 servings), 2½ TBSP sweet soy glaze (5 TBSP for 4), and ½ tsp sugar (1 tsp for 4). TIP: Be sure to measure the sweet soy glaze; we sent more.
Step 3
• Heat a large drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add scallion whites and cook until just softened, 1 minute. • Add pork* and garlic powder; season with salt and pepper. Using a spatula, press into an even layer. Cook, without stirring, until browned on bottom, 3-4 minutes. Break up meat into pieces and continue cooking until pork is cooked through, 1-2 minutes. • Stir in sauce and cook, stirring, until slightly thickened, 1 minute more.
Step 4
• Stir red cabbage and carrot mix into pan with pork; cook until just tender, 2-3 minutes. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Turn off heat. • Fluff rice with a fork; stir in 1 TBSP butter until melted. • Divide rice between bowls; top with stir-fry. Garnish with scallion greens and crispy fried onions. Serve.
