Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 450 grams Ground pork
- 250 grams Fresh or frozen corn kernels
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon Ginger, minced
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 3 stalks Scallions, chopped (white and green parts separated)
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili flakes (optional)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt

Instructions
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add the vegetable oil.
Add the minced garlic and ginger to the pan and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the ground pork to the pan and break it apart using a wooden spoon or spatula. Cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring frequently, until the pork is browned and no longer pink.
Stir in the white parts of the scallions, soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil. Mix well to coat the pork evenly.
Add the corn kernels to the pan and cook for another 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the corn is tender and heated through.
If desired, sprinkle in the red chili flakes for a hint of spice.
Season the dish with salt and ground black pepper to taste, then stir in the green parts of the scallions.
Remove from heat and transfer to a serving dish. Serve hot with steamed rice or noodles.
