Stir Fried Pork with Ginger and Spring Onion

I haven't had this dish for the longest time and thought that it will go perfectly with that pot of porridge that I was simmering over the stove. Although it was my first attempt, it was surprisingly well received by my sister. But then again, what could go wrong with tender juicy meat slices coated in thick flavoursome sauce? For those craving variety, do note that this recipe can also be used with beef slices or pork liver.

Ingredients:

1                          pork fillet, sliced thinly against the grain
2 cloves               garlic, minced
6 slices                 old ginger
4 stalks                 spring onion, cut into 2 inches length
1 tablespoon         cooking oil

Marinade:
1 tablespoon          oyster sauce
1 tablespoon          cornflour
1 teaspoon             sesame oil
1 tablespoon          light soy sauce
dash                      ground white pepper

Sauce:
1 tablespoon          light soy sauce
1/2 tablespoon       dark soy sauce
1 teaspoon             sugar
3 tablespoons         rice wine
1 tablespoon          water

Method:

Marinate the meat slices with oyster sauce, cornflour, light soy sauce, sesame oil and white pepper for at least 30 minutes.

Heat a wok with 1 tablespoon of cooking oil. Add in the sliced ginger and fry for about 30 seconds. Add in the minced garlic and fry till fragrant.

Stir in the marinated meat slices and fry for about 2 minutes on high. Add in the prepared sauce and continue frying till the meat slices are cooked, approx. 2 to 3 minutes. Do not overcook the meat as it will become tough, especially for pork liver.

Add in the spring onion, stir and serve.
