GINGER AND LEMON PORK AND CHICKEN



Ginger and Lemon Pork and Chicken image

This is a combination of 2 recipes from the Australian Women's Weekly Chinese Cooking Class Cookbook which I have had since the 70's and is well used. Time to make doesn't include marinade time - I was cutting up vegetables for stir fry vegetables during this time, which were cooked up first and kept warm in the oven. The rice was cooking while cooking the chicken and pork - the whole meal was on the table within the hour.

Provided by Julia Moskin

Categories     dinner, easy, quick, weekday, appetizer

Time 30m

Yield 16 to 18 sliders

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound ground pork, preferably pork shoulder or another fatty cut
1/4 teaspoon turmeric
2 tablespoons chopped lemon grass
2 tablespoons chopped garlic
1/2 cup chopped shallots
2 tablespoons minced ginger
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup chilled cooked white rice
1/2 teaspoon cayenne or other red chile powder
1/4 cup finely chopped, seeded plum tomatoes
About 1/4 cup peanut oil and more for oiling the plate
Cilantro sprigs, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the pork and turmeric and set aside.
  • In a mortar or food processor, combine the lemon grass, garlic, shallots, ginger and salt. Process or pound to a coarse paste. Add the rice, chile powder and tomatoes and process again.
  • Lightly brush a plate with oil. Add the aromatic paste to the meat and use your hands to knead together thoroughly. Shape the mixture into balls about 1 inch in diameter, then flatten each gently into a small, thick patty. Set aside on the oiled plate.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients prepped and measured. This will help the cooking process go smoothly and quickly.
  • Use a wok or large skillet: A wok or large skillet will allow you to cook the pork and vegetables in a single pan, which will save time and cleanup.
  • Get the pan hot: Before adding the pork, make sure the pan is hot enough to sear it. This will help create a nice crust and lock in the flavors.
  • Cook the pork in batches: If you're cooking a lot of pork, cook it in batches so that it doesn't overcrowd the pan. This will help it cook evenly and prevent it from steaming.
  • Don't overcook the pork: Pork is a lean meat, so it's important to not overcook it. Otherwise, it will become tough and dry.
  • Add the vegetables towards the end: The vegetables should be added towards the end of the cooking process so that they don't get overcooked.
  • Use a flavorful sauce: The sauce is what will really bring the dish together. Make sure you use a sauce that you enjoy the taste of.
  • Serve immediately: Lemon ginger pork stir-fry is best served immediately after it's cooked. This will ensure that the flavors are at their peak.

Conclusion:

Lemon ginger pork stir-fry is a quick and easy dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It's also a great way to use up leftover pork. The combination of lemon, ginger, and soy sauce creates a flavorful and aromatic dish that is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner idea, give lemon ginger pork stir-fry a try. You won't be disappointed.
