BLACK PEPPER BEEF AND CABBAGE STIR-FRY
Coarsely crushed black peppercorns star in this quick weeknight dish, which is built primarily from pantry staples. Don't be shy about adding the entire tablespoon of pepper, as it balances out the richness of the beef and adds a lightly spicy bite to the dish. A quick rub of garlic, brown sugar, salt, pepper and cornstarch seasons the beef; the cornstarch helps tenderize the beef and later imparts a silky texture to the sauce. Feel free to marinate the beef up to 8 hours ahead and cook when you're ready. If leftovers remain, tuck them into a crunchy baguette or roll them into a wrap.

TEA-SMOKED PORK AND TENDER CABBAGE STIR-FRY
The wok has many uses. Since Chinese homes don't have ovens, cooks learned to use the wok and its lid as an oven and a smoker. The Hunan Chinese especially took to this method; their cuisine is known for its inclusion of smoked meats such as duck and pork. The smoking mixture of sugar and tea leaves provides the smoky flavor, while the rice provides the fuel for the smoke. Once smoked, the pork is stir-fried with cabbage in a mild spicy sauce.

Steps:
- Place the pork in a 2-quart saucepan, add the water, ginger, green onions, sugar, and salt, and bring to a boil. Adjust the heat so the liquid is simmering, cover the pot, and simmer until the pork is almost cooked through, about 8 minutes. Drain the pork and set aside.
- Line the inside of a wok and the inside of its lid with aluminum foil. Make the smoking mixture: Stir the tea leaves, rice, sugar, and star anise together in the lined wok, then spread evenly over the bottom. Set a round rack over the smoking mixture, about 3 inches above the mixture, and set the pork on the center of the rack.
- Place the wok, uncovered, over high heat. When the rice mixture begins to smoke, cover the wok, reduce the heat to medium, and smoke until the pork turns a rich, deep brown, about 25 minutes. Turn off the heat and let stand for 5 minutes before removing the lid.
- Let the pork cool briefly, then cut into1/8-inch-thick slices. (Discard the smoking mixture and foil.) Clean the wok and heat it over high heat until hot. Add the oil and swirl to coat the sides. Add the garlic, ginger and chile and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the pork, cabbage, carrot, and bamboo shoots and stir-fry until the cabbage is wilted, about 1 minute.
- Add the chicken stock, soy sauce and chile garlic sauce and bring to a boil. Adjust the heat so the sauce is simmering, cover the wok, and simmer until the carrot is tender, about 3 minutes.
- Pour in the dissolved cornstarch and cook, stirring, until the sauce thickens slightly, about 30 seconds. Stir in the sesame oil, scoop onto a warm serving platter and serve hot.
Tips:
- Choose the right cabbage: Look for firm, tightly packed heads of cabbage with deep green leaves. Avoid any heads that are wilted or have brown or yellow spots.
- Wash the cabbage thoroughly: Remove the outer leaves and rinse the cabbage under cold water. Cut the cabbage into quarters or eighths, depending on the size of your stir-fry pan.
- Use a hot pan: A hot pan will help to sear the cabbage and prevent it from becoming soggy. Heat your pan over medium-high heat before adding the cabbage.
- Stir-fry in batches: If you are using a lot of cabbage, cook it in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. This will help the cabbage to cook evenly.
- Season to taste: Cabbage is a very versatile vegetable, so you can season it with a variety of different sauces and spices. Some popular options include soy sauce, oyster sauce, garlic, ginger, and black pepper.
Conclusion:
Stir-fried cabbage is a quick and easy dish that is packed with flavor and nutrients. It is a great way to use up leftover cabbage, and it can be served as a side dish or main course. With a few simple tips, you can make a delicious stir-fried cabbage dish that your whole family will enjoy.
