1 pound fresh lean pork (tenderloin or roast)
6 to 8 green onions
1 medium green or sweet red pepper
1-1/2 cups fresh broccoli

2 tablespoons hot water
2 teaspoons sugar
6 tablespoons ketchup
4 tablespoons soy sauce

Steps:

  • Cut pork into narrow 1-in. strips, 1/4-in. thick; set aside. (Partially freeze pork first for easier cutting.) Cut green onions, peppers, broccoli and onion into 1-in. pieces; set aside.
