Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Pork tenderloin
- 1 small head (about 600 grams) Green cabbage
- 1 medium Carrot
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 3 whole Garlic cloves
- 1 inch piece Ginger
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 3 tablespoons Water
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 stalks Green onion
Instructions
Trim any excess fat from the pork tenderloin, then slice it into thin strips about 1/4 inch thick.
In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, and 3 tablespoons of water. Mix well and set aside.
Peel and thinly slice the garlic cloves and ginger. Slice the green onion into 1-inch sections. Shred the cabbage and carrot into thin strips.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the pork strips and season with salt and pepper. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes or until the pork is mostly cooked through. Remove the pork from the skillet and set it aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil, followed by the garlic and ginger. Stir-fry for about 30 seconds to release their aroma.
Add the shredded cabbage and carrot to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-5 minutes until the vegetables start to soften.
Return the pork to the skillet and pour the sauce mixture over the ingredients. Toss everything together to coat evenly. Stir-fry for an additional 3-4 minutes or until the pork is fully cooked and the cabbage is tender.
Adjust the seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed. Garnish with sliced green onion.
Serve hot with steamed rice or noodles for a complete meal.
