PORK STRIPS WITH ONION

PORK STRIPS WITH ONION

DIRECTIONS:

  1. Cut the MEAT to thin slices (1-2 mm thin, but can be large).
  2. Mix the meat with about 1-1,5 teaspoon of starch. Add a little WATER.
  3. Cut the ONION to cubes of about 3x3x3 cm, or to “slices”.
  4. Heat up the wok, add about 4 cl of SUNFLOWER OIL. Heat until it starts to ripple and smoke.
  5. Add the MEAT and roast it until it gets an even, slightly brown color (~2 mins).
  6. Add the SALT and the SOY SAUCE.
  7. Add the ONION. Some water might also be necessary to add. While stirring, fry until the onion becomes crispy (~1-2 mins).
  8. Add some CHINESE SALT.
  9. IT IS READY TO BE SERVED!

TIPS:

  • This dish can be prepared with beef, chicken or even sheep meat. For the latter, remove all tallow and eventually use dry hot pepper or chilli during the roasting.
  • Always cut the meat against the grain (except pork).
  • Choose the shape of the other ingredients (especially the vegetables) in accordance to the shape of the meat (for example if the meat is long, noodle-like, than the other ingredients should be alike. If it is cube-shaped, so should be the vegetables).
  • The meat can easily dry out if the used starch is not enough or if roasted too long.
  • The dish can become mushy if too much starch is used.
  • Instead of onion, red onion can be used which is more “spicier”.
