Stir-fried shredded pork with cabbage is a beloved, quick dish that balances tender meat, crisp vegetables, and savory flavors. Here’s a simple yet foolproof recipe to master it at home.
Ingredients: 200g pork loin (thinly sliced), 1/2 head cabbage (shredded), 2 garlic cloves (minced), 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp oyster sauce, 1/2 tsp sugar, 1 tbsp cooking oil, salt, and pepper to taste. Optional: a pinch of five-spice powder for depth.
Steps:
1. Marinate the pork: In a bowl, mix pork with 1 tsp soy sauce, pepper, and a pinch of cornstarch. Let it sit for 15 minutes to tenderize.
2. Prep the cabbage: Rinse cabbage and shred it evenly. Pat dry to avoid excess water, ensuring a crisp texture.
3. Stir-fry: Heat oil in a wok over high heat. Add pork and stir-fry until no longer pink (2-3 minutes). Remove and set aside.
4. Sauté aromatics: In the same wok, stir-fry garlic until fragrant (30 seconds). Add cabbage, tossing until it wilts slightly but stays crisp (3-4 minutes).
5. Combine and season: Return pork to the wok. Add remaining soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, and salt. Toss quickly to coat everything evenly. Cook for 1 more minute.
Serve hot with steamed rice. The dish pairs well with a drizzle of sesame oil or a sprinkle of chili flakes for extra heat. This versatile recipe can be customized with carrots, bell peppers, or mushrooms for added color and nutrition. Enjoy this comforting, home-style meal in under 20 minutes!
