Ingredients

pork tenderloin (cut into large slices 10 cm long, 7 cm wide, with cross-hatch scores) 300 g

eggs (beaten) 2

minced scallion and ginger 5 g

cooking wine 15 g

salt 5 g

MSG (monosodium glutamate) 5 g

flour 35 g

sesame oil (some for marinating, some for pan-frying) 80 g

chicken broth 150 ml

garlic chives, cut into 1-inch segments 15 g

roasted sesame powder 25 g

Instructions

Marinate

Wash the pork tenderloin and remove the fascia. Use a knife to cut it into large slices 10 cm long and 7 cm wide, then make a cross-hatch cut across the surface. Place the slices in a ceramic bowl along with the minced ginger and scallion, cooking wine, 10 g sesame oil, salt, and MSG. Mix well, marinate for 5 minutes, then stir in the beaten egg until evenly combined.

Pan-fry

Heat a wok and add a little sesame oil. Arrange the pork slices neatly in the pan and pan-sear over low heat for 1 minute until slightly collapsed, then flip and fry for another 1 minute. Transfer the slices to a strainer to drain off excess oil.

Braise and finish

Heat the wok again with sesame oil. When the oil is about half-hot (50% heat), add scallion and ginger and stir-fry until fragrant. Add the eggs, MSG, salt, and cooking wine, then place the pan-fried pork slices into the wok and simmer-braise for 2 minutes. Top with the garlic chive segments and sprinkle with the roasted sesame powder before serving.
