Carol, I like China Moon's pork stir-fry. The pork is cut into little strips and marinated

Here's a version.

Wow, so funny you should ask-I finally "velveted" and will never go back-awesome!Thx Cheez, et al !

I've been meaning to try that method for quite some time and finally got to it.
The chicken was amazing!!

I used this as a basis, I only had broccoli and red/green peppers, was still really good.

Thanks Cheez for this wonderful recipe.

Thanks this sounds good but I doubt it can be made in 15 min as the recipe says. What do you think?

If you're looking for a book, Grace Young's "Breath of a Wok" is the bible for stir fry.

Janet, making the marinade and marinating is all done ahead. That's why the "recipe" is so quick

If you've ever had really good garlic chili pork, this comes out like that, only better since you can add your favorite stir-fry veggies and leave out the ones you don't. And you'll never be able to add pork strips without this method again....it just won't be fork-tender.

This worked really well for a luncheon pot luck. I brought in my electric work, a large bowl of prepared rice, all the veggies cut up in separate bags, the marinated pork and peanut oil. We reheated the rice in the microwave, I cooked the pork (took all of one minute) removed it and stir-fryed the veggies based on density.

One large wok-full fed six of us and there wasn't even a pound of pork. I cut up pork chops into 1/4" strips to marinate.

Mar, Thanks for the pork stir fry recipe. I have some pork in the freezer will make this next week!

I copied and pasted the recipe below from Mar. Makes it easier for me to print and find in the future! : ) (From China Moon)

1 Tablespoon brown sugar
1 Tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon crushed garlic

3 Tablespoons hoisin sauce

1 cup sliced carrots
1 Tablespoon cornstarch, mixed with 1 Tablespoon water

How to make it

Combine all marinade ingredients and mix in pork; set aside for 1-4 hours.

Combine all sauce ingredients and set aside.

Heat wok over medium-high heat and add oil when wok is hot.

Stir fry garlic, ginger, and scallions for a few moments until fragrant.

Add broccoli and carrots and stir fry until desired doneness.

Remove vegetables from wok and reheat it.

If sauce is too runny for you, mix in the cornstarch/water mixture and let it boil for a moment to thicken.
