  • Lean pork
  • Salt
  • Light soy sauce
  • Oyster sauce
  • Garlic
  • Ginger
  • Soy sauce (optional)
  • Fermented black beans (optional)

Measurements

  • Amount of green peppers = servings * 3 pcs.

  • Salt amount = servings * 3g.
  • Light soy sauce = servings * 3ml.
  • Oyster sauce = servings * 3ml.

Steps

  • Wash the green peppers, remove the stems and seeds, then cut into pieces using a rolling cut and set aside.
  • Smash the garlic with a knife, then slice into cloves; mince the ginger into ginger mince.
  • Slice the lean pork (cut along the grain of the pork, i.e., the knife and the grain form a horizontal line; the resulting slices show a “川” pattern).
  • Wash the sliced pork, put into an empty bowl, then add the calculated light soy sauce, oyster sauce, and salt, mix well, and marinate for 10 minutes.
  • Heat the pan without oil, add the cut green peppers, and stir-fry over high heat until blistered; then add 2g salt and continue stir-frying for 1 minute, then remove.
