Chef's Tips
Add a touch of sesame oil towards the end of cooking to enhance the taste of Asia. Or add some chilli oil for an extra hot kick!
Groundnut oil would be the best oil to use for frying but I wouldn't go to the trouble of buying it just for this dish.
Season with sea salt or fish sauce.
To make it veggie, substitute aubergine or broccoli and pak choi for the pork.
