Steps

How to make it

Prep 6 min · Cook 8 min

  1. Slice 120 g pork against the grain into thin pieces; shred 1/4 onion; seed and cut 1/2 green bell pepper into strips; slice 2 garlic cloves.
  2. Toss pork with 1/2 tbsp soy sauce and 1/2 tbsp rice wine; let rest 5 minutes to marinate (reserve the remaining half of each for stir-frying).
  3. Heat a skillet over medium-high. Add 1 tbsp olive oil. When hot, stir-fry garlic slices and onion about 1 minute until translucent.
  4. Add pork over high heat; stir-fry about 2 minutes until color changes and surfaces are lightly browned (do not overcook or meat will toughen).
  5. Add pepper strips over medium heat; toss about 1 minute until still crisp and brightly colored.
  6. Drizzle the remaining soy sauce and rice wine down the side of the pan; toss quickly about 30 seconds, taste with a pinch of salt, and serve.

Tips & storage

Make it easier

  • Beef slices work too—cook just until color changes, slightly shorter time.
  • Drain vegetables well before cooking; excess water steams them and softens the texture.

Best fresh; refrigerate 1 day; reheat over high heat 1 minute.

FAQ

No green pepper?

Bell pepper, celery, or cabbage strips work.

What should I do if the vegetables release water?

Drain them well and cook in batches so the pan stays hot instead of turning the vegetables soft and watery.
