How to Make Stir-Fried Pork with Green Peppers

Stir-fried pork with green peppers is a quick, delicious dish loved for its tender meat and crisp veggies. Here’s a simple guide to making it at home.

Ingredients: 200g pork tenderloin, sliced thin; 2 green peppers, seeded and cut into strips; 2 cloves garlic, minced; 1 tbsp soy sauce; 1 tsp oyster sauce; 1 tbsp cooking oil; 1 tsp cornstarch (for marinating); Salt and pepper to taste.

Steps:

1. Marinate the pork: In a bowl, mix pork slices with soy sauce, oyster sauce, cornstarch, a pinch of salt, and pepper. Let it sit for 15 minutes to tenderize.

2. Prep the veggies: Heat oil in a wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic and stir until fragrant (about 10 seconds).

3. Stir-fry the pork: Add marinated pork and stir-fry for 2–3 minutes until browned. Remove pork and set aside.

4. Cook the peppers: In the same pan, add green pepper strips and stir-fry for 1–2 minutes until slightly softened but still crisp.

5. Combine and season: Return the pork to the pan. Toss everything together, adding a splash of water if needed. Cook for 1 more minute. Adjust seasoning and serve hot with rice.

Tips: For extra flavor, add a pinch of sugar to balance the soy sauce. Avoid overcooking the peppers to maintain their crunch. This versatile dish pairs perfectly with steamed rice and takes just 20 minutes from start to finish!
