A savory and aromatic stir-fry featuring tender pre-cooked pork elbow slices tossed with fragrant scallions in a savory soy glaze.
Story
This dish transforms leftover cooked pork elbow into a flavorful meal. The key is to use plenty of fresh scallions, which become sweet and mellow when sautéed, perfectly balancing the richness of the meat.
Ingredients
cooked pork elbow
300 grams
large scallions (green onions)
3 stalks
cooking oil
2 tablespoons
light soy sauce
1 tablespoon
cooking wine (Shaoxing)
1 tablespoon
Instructions
1
Prep the Meat and Aromatics
Slice the pre-cooked pork elbow into thin, bite-sized pieces. Cut the scallions into 2-inch long sections on a diagonal bias to increase their surface area.
2
Sauté the Scallions
Heat the oil in a wok or skillet over medium heat. Add the scallion segments and stir-fry them until they just begin to soften and release their fragrance.
3
Add Flavor and Meat
Pour in the soy sauce and cooking wine, stirring quickly to coat the aromatics. Toss in the sliced pork elbow and stir-fry vigorously for 2-3 minutes until the meat is heated through and evenly glazed.
