Slice the pork tenderloin into thin strips and season with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Set aside.
Chop the broccoli florets into bite-sized pieces and mince the garlic. Grate the fresh ginger.
In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, honey, cornstarch, and 3 tablespoons of water to make the sauce. Stir until the cornstarch dissolves completely.
Heat a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat and add the cooking oil.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the wok, stirring constantly for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Increase the heat to high and add the pork slices. Stir fry for 2-3 minutes, or until the pork is mostly cooked through.
Add the broccoli and stir fry for another 3-4 minutes, until the broccoli is bright green and slightly tender but still crisp.
Toss in the raw cashews and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly to prevent burning.
Reduce the heat to medium and pour the prepared sauce over the stir fry. Stir well to coat all the ingredients evenly and allow the sauce to thicken, about 1-2 minutes.
Drizzle the sesame oil over the dish, give it a final stir, and remove from heat.
Serve immediately with steamed rice or noodles for a complete meal.
