Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams pork loin or shoulder, thinly sliced
- 250 grams firm tofu, drained and cubed
- 4 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger, minced
- 1 medium onion, sliced
- 1 large carrot, julienned
- 1 medium bell pepper, sliced
- 2 stalks scallions, chopped
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 0.5 teaspoon white or black pepper
- 3 tablespoons water
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce, 1 teaspoon of sesame oil, 1 tablespoon of cornstarch, and 2 tablespoons of water. Stir until smooth to create the marinade.
Add the sliced pork to the marinade, toss until well-coated, and set aside for 10 minutes to marinate.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the tofu cubes and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove the tofu from the pan and set aside.
In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of vegetable oil. Stir fry the minced garlic and ginger for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the marinated pork to the skillet, spreading the slices evenly. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pork is browned and cooked through. Remove the pork from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the sliced onion, carrot, and bell pepper. Stir fry for 2-3 minutes until slightly tender.
Return the pork and tofu to the skillet and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce, 1 tablespoon of hoisin sauce, and 1 tablespoon of water. Stir well to coat everything evenly.
Add the white or black pepper and adjust seasoning to taste. Stir fry for an additional 2 minutes until the sauce slightly thickens.
Garnish with chopped scallions and serve immediately over steamed rice or noodles.
