Tips:
- Choose the right cut of pork: For this recipe, tenderloin, sirloin, or shoulder are good options.
- Marinate the pork: Marinating the pork in a mixture of soy sauce, cornstarch, and other seasonings helps to tenderize and flavor it.
- Use a hot wok or skillet: This will help to sear the pork and vegetables quickly, creating a nice caramelized flavor.
- Don't overcrowd the wok or skillet: If you add too much food at once, it will steam instead of fry.
- Cook the pork in batches if necessary: If you have a lot of pork, cook it in batches so that it doesn't overcrowd the wok or skillet.
- Add the vegetables towards the end of cooking: This will help to prevent them from overcooking.
- Stir-fry until the sauce is thickened and the vegetables are tender-crisp: This usually takes only a few minutes.
- Serve immediately: Pork broccoli stir-fry is best served hot and fresh from the wok or skillet.
