PORK WITH PEKING SAUCE
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Shred the pork by cutting it into thin slices, then stacking them up one on top of the other, and cutting across into shreds.
- In a medium-sized bowl, combine the pork shreds with the rice wine or sherry, dark soy sauce, salt, and cornstarch, adding the cornstarch last. Marinate the pork for 20 minutes.
- While the pork is marinating, shred the cabbage or lettuce. Arrange the shredded cabbage on a plate.
- Heat the wok over medium-high to high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of oil. When the oil is hot , add the pork shreds and stir-fry until they change color and are nearly cooked. Remove from the wok.
- Add 1 tablespoon oil. When the oil is hot, add the ginger and the sweet bean sauce (or hoisin or sweet bean paste/water mixture). Cook until aromatic.
- Add the pork back into the pan and mix with the sauce. Season with salt, soy sauce and/or freshly ground white pepper if desired.
- Arrange the pork shreds on the shredded vegetables and add garnishes, if desired. The flavor of green onions is especially good with this dish.

SAUCY PORK BITES
Tender pork bites swirled among a creamy, tasty sauce ready to be tossed upon a mound of potatoes, pasta or rice for a quick and easy meal. Serve this with green beans, broccoli or a salad. This recipe comes from the Augusta Chronicle and Kelly Calloway. You can use bits of pork sold at your grocery store or cut up a tenderloin. A little finely chopped rosemary would be a good addition to the sauce as would sauteed sliced mushrooms. You can also substitute chicken or beef bites too. (If you use beef change the broth to beef as well.) This recipe provides a versatile and scrumptious bite. Enjoy! ChefDLH
