Pork With Black Bean Sauce Recipe
Step 1: Cut the pork into thin slices 2″ long. Put the slices into a small bowl and mix them well with the marinade ingredients. Let them marinate for about 20 minutes.
Step 2: Heat a wok or large skillet until it is hot. Add half the oil, and when it is very hot and almost smoking, lift the pork out of the marinade with a slotted spoon, put it into the wok and quickly stir-fry it for about 2-3 minutes. Transfer it to a bowl.
Step 3: Wipe the wok clean, reheat it and add the rest of the oil. Then quickly add the black beans, garlic, green onions and shallots. A few seconds later add the soy sauce, sugar, chicken stock and sesame oil. Bring to a boil, then return the pork to the wok or skillet and stir-fry for another 5 minutes. Turn everything onto a platter and serve at once.
