Techniques you'll use

  • Stir-frying ↗

    Cook small pieces in stages, then bring them together while their textures are distinct.

Steps

  1. 1

    Step 115 min

    Prepare all vegetables, pork, and aromatics. Mix the starch and water until smooth.

    ✅ Done when: The potato and pork slices are even and the slurry has no lumps.

    Watch out: Keep raw pork separate from vegetables.

  2. 2

    Step 25 min

    Medium-high heatStir-frying ↗

    Heat the oil over medium-high, add the pork, and stir-fry until no pink remains. Add 3 ml soy sauce and 2 g salt and toss to color evenly.

    ✅ Done when: The pork reaches at least 63°C, then rests 3 minutes during the remaining cooking.

    Watch out: Avoid crowding so the pork browns rather than steams.

  3. 3

    Step 36 min

    High heatStir-frying ↗

    Add the scallion, ginger, and garlic for 5 seconds, then add the potato, remaining soy sauce, and 2 g salt. Stir-fry until the potato is just tender with pale golden edges.

    ✅ Done when: A potato slice is tender with no raw crunch but still holds its shape.

    Watch out: Add a small splash of water only if the potato browns before becoming tender.

  4. 4

    Step 43 min

    High heatStir-frying ↗

    Add the green pepper and stir-fry over high heat for 1 minute. Stir the slurry, pour it around the wok, and toss over medium-low until a thin glaze forms.

    ✅ Done when: The pepper is crisp-tender and the glaze lightly coats every piece.

    Watch out: Do not overcook after adding the slurry.
