Prep the vegetables and meat

Stir-fry the pork
Heat a wok or frying pan over medium-high heat with a tablespoon of oil. Add the pork slices and stir-fry until they change color and are mostly cooked through. Remove the pork from the pan and set aside.

Combine and cook
Add the remaining oil to the pan. Toss in the scallions and peppers for a few seconds, then add the celery and tofu. Stir-fry for a couple of minutes until the celery is tender-crisp. Return the pork to the pan, season with soy sauce and salt, and mix everything well. Serve hot.
