How to Make Stir-Fried Pork and Cauliflower: A Complete Guide

Stir-fried pork and cauliflower is a quick, delicious dish that balances tender meat and crisp vegetables, perfect for busy weeknights. Here’s a simple, step-by-step guide to making it at home.

Ingredients:

- 200g pork loin, thinly sliced

- 1 medium cauliflower, cut into florets

- 2 cloves garlic, minced

- 1 tbsp soy sauce

- 1 tsp oyster sauce

- 1/2 tsp sugar

- 2 tbsp cooking oil

- Salt and pepper to taste

- Optional: 1 sliced bell pepper or carrot for color.

Instructions:

1. Prep the ingredients: Marinate the pork with 1/2 tbsp soy sauce, pepper, and a pinch of salt for 10 minutes. Blanch cauliflower florets in boiling water for 2 minutes, then drain.

2. Stir-fry the pork: Heat oil in a wok over high heat. Add pork and stir-fry until browned, about 2-3 minutes. Remove and set aside.

3. Cook the vegetables: In the same wok, sauté garlic until fragrant. Add cauliflower (and bell pepper if using) and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until crisp-tender.

4. Combine and season: Return pork to the wok. Add remaining soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, and a splash of water. Stir-fry for 1 minute until everything is coated and heated through. Adjust seasoning with salt if needed.

5. Serve: Transfer to a plate and enjoy hot with steamed rice.

Tips: For extra flavor, add a dash of sesame oil before serving. Customize with chili flakes for heat or mushrooms for umami. This versatile dish is ready in under 20 minutes!
