Instructions
Slice the pork tenderloin into thin strips and place them in a mixing bowl.
In the bowl with the pork, mix 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, 1 teaspoon of cornstarch, and 1 teaspoon of sesame oil. Marinate for 10 minutes.

Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in the wok. Add the garlic and ginger, stir-frying for 30 seconds until fragrant.
