Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 mins

Heat olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. (2 minutes)

02

Step
4 mins

Add pork strips and stir-fry until lightly browned. (3-4 minutes)

03

Step
5 mins

Add red, yellow, and green bell peppers, carrot, and Brussels sprouts. Toss to coat with oil and create a light glaze on the pan. Pour in a splash of water (about 2-3 tablespoons) to help steam the vegetables. Cook, stirring constantly, until the peppers begin to soften but still retain a slight crispness. (5 minutes)

04

Step
7 mins

Reduce heat to medium. Stir in garlic, onion, parsley, and celery. Simmer for 5-7 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

05

Step
3 mins

Add finely chopped ginger, continue to simmer for 2-3 minutes, allowing its aromatic warmth to infuse the dish.

06

Step
3 mins

Finally, stir in water chestnuts and fresh mint. Simmer for another 2-3 minutes to blend all the flavors harmoniously. Serve immediately and savor the symphony of tastes!

For the best flavor, use high-quality pork loin and the freshest vegetables and herbs available.
Don't overcrowd the pan – stir-fry in batches if necessary to ensure even cooking and browning.
Feel free to adjust the amount of ginger and garlic to your personal preference.
Serve over steamed rice or quinoa for a complete and satisfying meal.
If you like a little heat, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of your favorite hot sauce.

    Next time, I might add a little soy sauce for a deeper umami flavor, but it's fantastic as is.
