Pork scotch fillet, otherwise known as pork neck, is one of Adam Liaw's favourite cuts. A simple steak, seasoned with salt, pepper and olive oil can be the best way to enjoy its prized marbling. Serve with a wilted fennel and apple salad for that restaurant-like finish.

Thin slices of pork belly are perfect for getting creative with your pork dishes. In Japan, they wrap everything from cherry tomatoes to bunches of lettuce around before cooking. Here, they're wrapped around bundles of enoki mushrooms and pan-fried in sake, mirin and soy sauce to create a caramelised crust.

Inspired by the German schnitzel, breaded and deep-fried pork, otherwise known as tonkatsu, is a popular dish in Japan. This recipe showcases the clever technique of using skewers to pass pork through flour, eggs, and panko, not only to avoid messy hands but also to allow draining at an angle for a crisp finish.
