Method

Restated from the original video

  1. 1

    Mix the pork with 1 tsp of the soy sauce and set aside.

  2. 2

    In a jug, stir the cornstarch into the stock until dissolved, then add the oyster sauce, sugar, sesame oil and the rest of the soy sauce.

  3. 3

    Heat 1 tbsp of the vegetable oil in a wok over high heat. Add the pork and stir-fry, breaking it up, until browned and cooked through with no pink left, 4-5 min. Tip it onto a plate.

  4. 4

    Add the remaining vegetable oil to the wok. Stir-fry the garlic and ginger for 20 seconds.

  5. 5

    Add the onion, celery and carrot and stir-fry for 2 min.

  6. 6

    Add the mushrooms, cabbage and bamboo shoots and stir-fry until the cabbage wilts but the celery still has some bite, 2-3 min.

  7. 7

    Return the pork to the wok. Stir the sauce again, pour it in and toss until it boils and turns glossy, 1-2 min.

  8. 8

    Add the bean sprouts and toss for 30 seconds, just long enough to heat them without losing their crunch.

  9. 9

    Serve straight away, while the vegetables are still crisp.
