Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Pork tenderloin
- 4 tablespoons Soy sauce (low sodium)
- 2 teaspoons Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Sesame oil
- 4 units Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, grated
- 1 teaspoon Red chili flakes
- 2 units Bell peppers, thinly sliced
- 2 units Carrots, julienned
- 150 grams Snow peas
- 3 units Green onions, sliced
- 1 tablespoon Sriracha sauce
- 2 tablespoons Oyster sauce
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
Instructions
Slice the pork tenderloin into thin strips and place it in a bowl.
In the bowl, combine the sliced pork with 2 tablespoons of soy sauce and cornstarch. Mix well to coat the pork, then let it marinate for at least 10 minutes.
Heat a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the vegetable oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the marinated pork to the wok. Stir-fry for 4-5 minutes or until the pork is golden and cooked through. Remove the pork from the wok and set aside.
In the same wok, add sesame oil, garlic, ginger, and red chili flakes. Stir-fry for 30 seconds or until fragrant.
Add the sliced bell peppers, julienned carrots, and snow peas to the wok. Stir-fry the vegetables for 3-4 minutes until they are tender but still crisp.
In a small bowl, mix the remaining soy sauce, oyster sauce, sriracha sauce, and water to create a stir-fry sauce.
Return the cooked pork to the wok and pour the stir-fry sauce over it. Toss everything together to coat well in the sauce. Cook for another 1-2 minutes to heat through.
Remove the wok from the heat and garnish the stir-fry with sliced green onions. Serve immediately with steamed rice or noodles, if desired.
