Ingredients

• 8 oz Plant-based pork substitute
• 2 cups Broccoli florets
• 1 cup Carrots, thinly sliced
• 1 medium Red bell pepper, sliced
• 1 cup Snow peas
• 1 medium Yellow onion, sliced
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, minced
• 3 tablespoons Soy sauce (gluten-free if needed)
• 2 tablespoons Hoisin sauce (vegan)
• 2 teaspoons Sesame oil
• 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons Water
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
• 2 stalks Green onions, sliced (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Prepare the plant-based pork substitute by slicing it into bite-sized pieces if it is not pre-shaped.

Step 2

Mix the cornstarch with the water in a small bowl to create a slurry, and set aside.

Step 3

Heat a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.

Step 4

Add the plant-based pork substitute to the hot skillet and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, or until lightly browned. Remove it from the skillet and set aside.

Step 5

Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet. Add the garlic, ginger, and onion, and stir-fry for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 6

Add the broccoli, carrots, red bell pepper, and snow peas to the skillet. Stir-fry the vegetables for 4-5 minutes, or until they are tender but still crisp.

Step 7

Return the plant-based pork substitute to the skillet and toss it with the vegetables.

Step 8

In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, and sesame oil. Pour the sauce over the stir-fry and toss everything until well coated.

Step 9

Stir in the cornstarch slurry and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until the sauce thickens.

Step 10

Remove the skillet from heat. Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions, if desired.
