Ingredients

• 450 grams pork tenderloin
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 teaspoons cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 2 pieces garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
• 2 medium-sized carrots, julienned
• 200 grams snow peas, trimmed
• 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
• 60 milliliters chicken broth
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 2 stalks green onions, sliced
• 0.25 teaspoons white pepper (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Slice the pork tenderloin into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of soy sauce and 2 teaspoons of cornstarch. Add the pork strips to this mixture and toss to coat. Let it marinate for 10 minutes while preparing the other ingredients.

Step 3

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the marinated pork and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, or until the pork is just cooked through. Remove the pork from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet, along with the minced garlic and grated ginger. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 5

Add the julienned carrots to the skillet and stir-fry for 2 minutes. Then, add the snow peas and stir-fry for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the vegetables are crisp-tender.

Step 6

Return the cooked pork to the skillet. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, oyster sauce, chicken broth, and sesame oil. Toss everything together until evenly coated and heated through.

Step 7

Taste and adjust seasoning with a pinch of white pepper if desired.

Step 8

Remove from heat and garnish with sliced green onions.

Step 9

Serve hot over steamed rice or enjoy as is.
