Julie & Peter love to stir-fry food. It is quick, easy, & healthy. We were tired of stir-fry chicken or shrimp so we decided to try pork. We tried a few different recipes but this, in our opinion, is the best. Enjoy!
1 1/2 lbs. pork tenderloin (2 whole tenderloins)
marinade:
2 T. dark soy sauce
2 T. dry Sherry
1 T. cornstarch
2 T. vegetable oil
4 scallions, minced (green & white parts)
1 T. minced peeled fresh ginger
2 medium bell peppers, seeded & diced (any colors)
1/4 cup hoisin sauce
1/4 cup dry Sherry
pinch salt
2 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
1 T. sesame oil
Slice the pork into 1/4 inch thick pieces. In a bowl, combine these marinade ingredients: soy sauce, Sherry, & cornstarch. Add the pork and let stand for at least 10 minutes.
In a carbon-steel wok, heat the vegetable oil over high heat until just smoking.
Add the scallions & ginger, and stir-fry until aromatic, about 30 seconds. Add the pork, reserving any remaining marinade, and stir-fry for about 5 minutes, until the pork is just done.
Add the peppers, and stir-fry for another minute. Add the hoisin sauce, Sherry salt, & black pepper, and combine. Add 2 T. of water to the marinade remaining in the bowl and add to the wok. Toss well to blend well.
Remove from heat, drizzle with the sesame oil, and serve immediately over brown rice.
