Ingredients
- Pork belly 400g
- Garlic sprouts 200g
- Doubanjiang 2 tbsp
- Ginger 15g
- Garlic 20g
- Soy sauce 1 tbsp
- Sugar 1 tsp
Steps
- Prepare all ingredients: wash, cut, and measure everything before cooking (mise en place).
- Heat oil in a wok over high heat. Add aromatics (ginger, garlic, scallions) and stir briefly until fragrant.
- Add the main ingredient (meat/vegetables/tofu) and cook using the appropriate technique.
- Add seasonings and sauce. Stir well to coat evenly. Adjust heat as needed.
- Continue cooking for 2-5 minutes until the main ingredient is cooked through and well seasoned.
- Transfer to a serving plate, garnish with scallions or cilantro, and serve hot.
Tips
Have all ingredients prepped and measured before you start cooking. Chinese stir-fry moves fast once the wok is hot - there is no time to chop or measure mid-cook.
