Pork and Cabbage Mille-feuille

Mille-feuille, French for a "thousand sheets," usually refers to a pastry with alternating layers of puff pastry and a sweet filling. I was googling for good ideas on how to use up some napa cabbage, and came across this pork and cabbage mille-feuille recipe. As you can guess from the name, all you do is spread out a layer of napa cabbage, then pork, another layer of cabbage, and so on until you've used up all your ingredients. Who knew that this process would be kind of fun? As I piled layer after layer on top of each other, I got the kind of feeling you get when you play with Legos, when the pieces seem to fit together well and you feel happy with your creation. So anyways, add a little water (I added some sake too) to your layered castle, heat it up and your dish is done in no time. We ate it with ponzu sauce, which was yummy.
