Cooking StepsHow to cook Salt-Scallion Pork Chops step by step
-
Step 1Cut the pork collar into 1cm-thick chops. Marinate with one egg, light soy sauce, black pepper, two slices of ginger, oyster sauce, and cornstarch for 20 minutes.
-
Step 2Prepare the salt-scallion topping: mix chopped scallions + white sesame seeds + minced garlic + black pepper + salt + sugar + 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
-
Step 3Heat a flat-bottomed pan with oil over medium heat. Place the pork chops in the pan.

Step 7Once the pork strips are fully cooked on all sides, spread the salt-scallion topping evenly over them.
