Stir-fried wood ear mushrooms with pork

Method

1. 01

   Step 1

   Wash the chili peppers, remove the stems, and slice them into rings. Mince the ginger and garlic.

   

2. 02

   Step 2

   Slice the pork thinly (I used pork shoulder, but you can use lean meat if you prefer). Marinate the pork with a little light soy sauce, a little dark soy sauce, a little sugar, cornstarch, and cooking wine for 15 minutes.

   Heat some oil in a pan, add the marinated meat slices and stir-fry until they change color, then remove from the pan.

   Then, in a separate pot, heat oil to about 60% of its maximum temperature, add a spoonful of chopped chili peppers and stir-fry (use a little more oil than usual for stir-frying).

   Step 7

   Add chili peppers

   

8. 08

   Step 8

   After the chili peppers release their aroma and spiciness, add the shredded wood ear mushrooms and stir-fry, then add a little salt (the chopped chili peppers are already salty, so don't add too much salt).

   

9. 09

   Step 9

   After stir-frying for a while, add the previously stir-fried meat slices and stir-fry again. Add a little light soy sauce and a tiny bit of water (just a few drops of light soy sauce and water are enough). Taste it and adjust the saltiness as needed. If it's not salty enough, you can add a little salt.
