Chinese dishes are at their best when cooked very simply. As soon as garlic is involved, the dish comes out great tasting. Sometimes, there is only one ingredient added to garlic and it is a dish already.
This dish has onions and chilli joining in and that adds a new level of flavour. Although the ingredients are very simple, the resulting dish is so tasty.
I don't know the exact name of this dish but it is listed as such: a list of the main ingredients. Nevertheless, it is a very popular dish in Chinese restaurants. Thin strips of pork are twice fried: first deep fried until crisp then stir fried with onions, chilli, garlic and spring onions. It is the second frying that gives it that extra boost of flavour.
It's an easy recipe to recreate and can also be used to rehash leftover meats like pork chops (sliced into strips) or fried/roast chicken.
500 gms. pork meat (shoulder, butt or loin), in thin slices
2 tbsps. light soy sauce
1 tsp. sesame oil
1/2 tsp. salt
1 medium eggcorn flour for dredging

2 cloves garlic, sliced
2 bunches spring onions1 tbsp. of light soy sauce
