Chinese Style Pork Chop

Not that I love to eat pork that much but it seems to be a really versatile ingredient in many types of cooking.

Ever since Darrius started taking solid, I have been buying lean pork to add into his porridge. Will buy around RM2-3 of lean meat each week and sometimes I'm left with a huge chunk in the freezer after slicing a few pieces for Darrius's porridge. As it is lean so the best and simplest thing to do with it is to make some pork chops ala Chinese style.

• 250gm Lean pork (slice to about 1cm thick)


• 1tsp Black soy sauce


• 1tsp Light soy sauce

.
Method:

1. Marinade pork for 1/2 hour or more.
   Heat up wok with about 1 tbsp of oil and fry the marinated pork on slow fire.


2. When the pork are all cooked, pick them up and use the remaining oil to cook the topping sauce. Mix all the ingredients and pour into wok and stir until boil. Pour in the pork chops and stir lightly before taking out.


3. For the snow peas, boil in water with a dash of salt and oil for about 1-2 minutes (not too long or the peas will not be crisp)

.
Note: Before marinating the pork, tenderise it first by using the back of the clever and chop lightly in a criss-cross way for a few times so the meat will not be tough to bite.
