Ingredient #1: Raw Ground Pork
This is the foundation.
Use 80/20 or 70/30 ground pork for best results
Avoid extra-lean pork—it won’t be as luscious
Fresh or frozen (thawed) both work
The pork slowly renders its fat as it cooks, creating a built-in sauce that keeps everything moist and flavorful.
Ingredient #2: Soy Sauce
Soy sauce does the heavy lifting here.
Adds umami depth
Enhances the natural sweetness of pork
Balances richness with saltiness

Regular soy sauce
Low-sodium soy sauce
Tamari or coconut aminos (with slight flavor differences)

Ingredient #3: Brown Sugar
