Ingredients

• 250g of pork ribs (removed all visible fat), cut into pieces
• 1 teaspoon of cornflour
• 2 tablespoons of dark soy sauce
• low-calorie frying spray
• 150g of mushrooms, sliced
• 2 red peppers, peeled and cut into slices
• 75g of mangetout peas (crispy pea) trimmed
• 15g of fresh ginger root, cut into thin sticks
• 1 clove of garlic, thinly sliced
• 4 spring onions, cut into shorter pieces
• freshly ground black pepper

Preparation

Season the pork with pepper. Mix the cornflour with two tablespoons of cold water until smooth, then stir in the soy sauce. Spray a large wok or deep frying pan with baking soda and put on high heat. Fry the pork, stirring, for 1-2 minutes or until lightly browned, but not overcooked.

Transfer to a plate. Return the pan to the heat, reduce the heat a little and sprinkle with more oil. Fry mushrooms and pepper for 2 minutes. Add the mangetout peas and fry for a minute. Add ginger, garlic, and spring onions and fry for a few seconds. Return the pork to the pan, then pour the soy sauce mixture over the meat and vegetables. Fry for 1-2 minutes, or until the sauce thickens and the pork is fried. Serve immediately.
