Ginger Pork Rolls

Ginger Pork Rolls

3 tbsp soy sauce
2 tsp ground ginger
2/3 cup golden raisins
1/2 cup chopped red onion
1 lb pork loin, thinly sliced
8 mini rolls or 4 regular rolls
1 cucumber, thinly sliced
A few sprigs of cilantro

1. In a large skillet, combine 1 cup water with soy sauce, ginger, raisins, and onion. Cover and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat; simmer for 5-6 minutes, or until rainsins are plump and onions are tender. Remove raisins and onions with a slotted spoot and transfer to a small bowl.
2. Add sliced pork to cooking liquid in skillet. Simmer, uncovered, for 7-8 minutes or until pork is cooked through, turning once.
3. Serve pork on buns with cucumber slices, cilantro, and raisin mixture.

Notes: Grating ginger root is a pain, but it does make a difference. If you're not up for the nuisance, go with the pre-ground spice in a jar. This will serve 4 people. Adapting it for 2 is hard because it's difficult to find a half pound pork loin.
