30 Minute Sweet Asian Chili Pork, Ginger and Tangerine Stir Fry - Half Baked Harvest:
Ingredients
2 tablespoons sesame oil
1 (500 gramm) pork tenderloin, sliced thin or pack of pork stir fry
1 tablespoons fresh ginger, minced or grated (use more ginger if you would like!)
1 red bell peppers, sliced thin
1 cups sweet thai chile sauce
1/8 cup soy sauce
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 bunches bok choy, chopped
1 tangerines peeled and in wedges
scallions or green onions, thinly sliced, for garnish
Toasted Sesame Rice for garnish
1 cup uncooked jasmine rice
2 cups water
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
1/4 cup toasted sesame seeds
Instructions to make the toasted sesame seeds and rice.
1. Heat the sesame seeds in a small skillet over medium heat, shaking the pan occasionally for about 5 minutes. Remove the seeds when they darken and become fragrant.
2. Add the water to a medium size pot.
Bring to a low boil and then add the rice and sesame oil.
Stir to combine and then place the lid on the pot and turn the heat down to the lowest setting possible.
Allow the rice to cook ten minutes on low and then turn the heat off completely and let the rice sit on the stove (covered) for another 20 minutes (don't take any peeks inside!).
After 20 minutes remove the lid and fluff the rice with a fork and stir in 1-2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds.
Note that rice can cook differently for everyone, this is just what works for me.
3. While the rice cooks make the stir fry.
Heat a very large skillet over high heat and add the sesame oil.
When the skillet is hot, but not smoking (if it starts to smoke, turn heat down a bit and wait 5 minutes before adding the pork) add the pork in a single layer (you may need to do this in 2 batches if your skillet is smaller) and allow it to cook for 2-3 minutes, so it can get a nice caramelisation on it.
Then toss it around and cook another 2-3 minutes, or until the pork is browned an just getting crispy on the edges.
Remove the pork from skillet and set aside.
4. If needed add another tablespoon of sesame oil to the skillet and throw in the red peppers.
Stir fry the peppers for 3-5 minutes, until they just begin to soften.
Add the pork back to the skillet along with the ginger and stir fry 30 seconds.
Add the sweet thai chile sauce,
- soy sauce,
- ground cloves,
- cinnamon and
- pepper.
Allow the mixture to bubble and reduce, about 5 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened and coats the pork nicely.
When the sauce is to your liking add the bok choy and toss well, cooking for another minute.
Remove from the heat and stir in the tangerines.
5. Serve the stir fry over the rice and garnish with green onions and toasted sesame seeds.
