How to Make Scallion and Pork Liver Stir-Fry

Scallion and pork liver stir-fry is a classic, flavorful dish loved for its tender texture and rich taste. Here’s a simple guide to making it perfectly.

First, prepare the ingredients: 300g fresh pork liver, washed and sliced thinly; 4-5 scallions, cut into 2-inch segments; 2 cloves garlic, minced; 1 tbsp ginger, grated. For marinating, mix the liver with 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp cornstarch, 1 egg white, and a pinch of pepper. Let it sit for 15 minutes to tenderize.

Heat 2 tbsp oil in a wok over high heat. Stir-fry the marinated liver for 1-2 minutes until just browned; remove and set aside. In the same wok, sauté garlic and ginger until fragrant, then add scallions and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Return the liver to the wok, add 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp oyster sauce, and a pinch of sugar. Toss everything quickly for 1 minute until well combined.

Serve hot with steamed rice. The key is to cook the liver over high heat to keep it tender—overcooking makes it tough. Enjoy this savory, umami-packed dish in just 20 minutes!
