Pork and Cabbage Stir Fry

 

Ingredients

For the Pork
  • 4 oz Pork tenderloin, thinly sliced for quick cooking and tender bites
  • 2 teaspoons Rice Wine Vinigar enhances the savory flavor profile
  • 1/4 teaspoon Grated ginger adds a warm, aromatic touch
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce contributes depth to the sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Cornstarch helps to tenderize the pork
  • 1/2 teaspoon Sugar to enhance the overall flavor
For the Cooking
  • 2 tablespoons Peanut oil, divided adds a subtle nutty flavor
  • 2 cloves Garlic, sliced for a fragrant base
  • 1/2 thumb Ginger, julienned brings a fresh kick to the dish
For the Vegetables
  • 1/4 head Regular cabbage, sliced provides crunch and absorbs flavors

Preparation
  1. In a medium-size bowl, combine the thinly sliced pork with Shaoxing wine, grated ginger, dark soy sauce, and 1 teaspoon of cornstarch. Mix well and let marinate for 10-15 minutes.
  2. In a small bowl, mix together the sauce ingredients: light soy sauce, 1/2 teaspoon of dark soy sauce, and sugar. Set aside.
  3. In another small bowl, add 1 teaspoon of cornstarch to 1 tablespoon of water and stir well to create a smooth slurry.
Cooking
  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of peanut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated pork and cook for about 1 minute until lightly charred, then flip and cook through. Transfer to a plate.
  2. Pour the remaining peanut oil into the skillet. Add the sliced garlic and julienned ginger, stirring until fragrant.
  3. Add the sliced cabbage and cook for about 3 minutes until tender. Adjust heat if necessary.
  4. Pour the prepared sauce into the skillet, return the pork, and stir to combine. Add the cornstarch slurry and cook until the sauce thickens.
  5. Lower the heat and check the seasoning. Add a pinch of salt if necessary, then transfer to a plate and serve hot.
