Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 450 grams Pork tenderloin
- 200 grams Shiitake mushrooms
- 6 stalks Scallions (green onions)
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Oyster sauce
- 2 tablespoons Shaoxing wine (or dry sherry)
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon Ginger (fresh, minced)
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 50 milliliters Chicken stock or water
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Thinly slice the pork tenderloin into bite-sized strips. Place the pork in a bowl and add 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of Shaoxing wine, sesame oil, cornstarch, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to coat the pork and set aside to marinate for 10 minutes.
While the pork marinates, clean and trim the shiitake mushrooms. Slice them into thin pieces. Chop the scallions into 1-inch segments, separating the white and green parts.
In a small bowl, combine the remaining soy sauce, oyster sauce, the rest of the Shaoxing wine, and chicken stock. Stir to create the sauce mixture and set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the marinated pork and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until it is lightly browned and just cooked through. Remove the pork from the pan and set aside.
Add the remaining vegetable oil to the same pan. Toss in the minced garlic, ginger, and the white parts of the scallions. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the sliced shiitake mushrooms to the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes until they are tender and slightly golden.
Return the cooked pork to the pan and pour in the sauce mixture. Stir everything together, allowing the flavors to combine and the sauce to thicken slightly for 1-2 minutes.
Add the green parts of the scallions and give the dish a final toss. Remove from heat.
Serve hot with steamed rice or noodles for a complete meal.
