  • 5 (tablespoon) olive oil
  • 1/48 (oz) salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 (pound) boneless pork loin chops, cut into bite sized pieces
  • 5 (tablespoon) vegetable oil

  3. Heat vegetable oil in wok over medium-high heat. Stir in marinated pork pieces, ginger, and chile paste. (Discard remaining marinade.)

Top with toasted almond slivers and fresh mint.

    The pork is excellent. However, I followed the recipe as I don't cook stir-fry very often--mistake. If you use 5 tablespoons of oil as called for when stir-frying the veggies, it will be mush before most of the liquid is evaporated. Next time, I would reduce oil to about 2T.

    @Sunshine, just wondering if you were using a really hot wok or a regular skillet? I can see where letting the sauce evaporate in a skillet that wasn't hot enough would leave the food mushy rather than crispy, if it didn't cook quickly enough.
