This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I would recommend using less chili pepper next time.

This recipe was a disaster! The pork was overcooked and the vegetables were mushy. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

The pork was a little tough, but the vegetables were cooked perfectly. I would recommend using a different cut of pork, such as pork tenderloin, next time.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I would recommend adding more spices or herbs to the marinade for the pork.

I love this recipe! It's so easy to make and always turns out great. I usually add a little bit of ginger and garlic to the marinade for the pork, and I always serve it over rice.

This stir-fry was delicious and healthy. I used lean pork tenderloin and added extra vegetables. It was a great way to get my kids to eat their veggies.

I made this dish exactly as written, and it turned out great. The only thing I would change is to add a little more heat. Next time, I'll add a teaspoon of red pepper flakes.
