How to Make Shredded Pork with Celery: A Complete Guide

Shredded pork with celery is a quick, healthy, and delicious dish loved for its balance of flavors and textures. Here’s a step-by-step guide to making it perfectly.

Ingredients:

- 200g pork tenderloin, shredded

- 300g celery, sliced diagonally

- 2 cloves garlic, minced

- 1 tbsp soy sauce

- 1 tsp oyster sauce

- ½ tsp sugar

- Salt to taste

- 2 tbsp cooking oil

Steps:

1. Marinate the pork: In a bowl, mix shredded pork with 1 tsp soy sauce, a pinch of salt, and 1 tsp starch. Let it sit for 15 minutes to tenderize.

2. Prep vegetables: Blanch celery slices in boiling water for 30 seconds, then drain. This keeps them crisp and vibrant.

3. Stir-fry: Heat oil in a wok over high heat. Add garlic and stir-fry until fragrant. Toss in the marinated pork and stir-fry until no longer pink.

4. Combine: Add blanched celery, remaining soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sugar. Stir-fry for 1–2 minutes until everything is well-coated. Adjust seasoning with salt if needed.

5. Serve: Dish out hot and enjoy with steamed rice!

Tips: For extra flavor, a dash of sesame oil or a sliced chili can be added. This dish is best served immediately to retain the celery’s crunch and the pork’s juiciness.
