Number Of Ingredients 17

6 leaves stem lettuce (celtuce), cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 pinch salt
2 teaspoons water
1 teaspoon cornstarch
½ pound lean pork, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 teaspoon rice wine (sake)
¼ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons chicken stock
2 teaspoons soy sauce
½ teaspoon Chinese black vinegar
½ teaspoon white sugar
3 ½ tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon finely chopped pickled red chile peppers
2 teaspoons chili bean sauce ((toban djan), such as Lee Kum Kee®)

Steps:

  • Combine stem lettuce and pinch of salt in another bowl.
