Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g Pork tenderloin
- 80 ml Hoisin sauce
- 30 ml Soy sauce
- 15 ml Rice vinegar
- 15 ml Honey
- 2 pieces Garlic cloves
- 1 tbsp Ginger
- 1 tbsp Cornstarch
- 2 tbsp Water
- 15 ml Sesame oil
- 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
- 3 pieces Green onions
- 1 tbsp Sesame seeds
Instructions
Trim any excess fat from the pork tenderloin and slice it into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick.
In a small bowl, mix hoisin sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Set the sauce mixture aside.
In another small bowl, mix cornstarch and water to form a slurry. This will be used to thicken the sauce later.
Heat a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat and add 2 tbsp of vegetable oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the pork strips in a single layer (cook in batches if needed) and sear for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. Remove the pork and set it aside.
Add sesame oil to the wok and pour in the prepared sauce mixture. Let it simmer for 2 minutes while stirring regularly.
Add the cooked pork back to the wok, stirring to coat the meat evenly in the sauce.
Pour the cornstarch slurry into the wok and continue stirring until the sauce thickens, about 1-2 minutes.
Turn off the heat and garnish the dish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.
Serve hot with steamed rice or sautéed vegetables.
