My grandmother used to make Ginger Pork for me when I visited her as a child. I still remember the cubed pork and the tasty gingery sauce. She would serve it in a bowl over white steamed rice. I would each all the pork and rice and I would noisily slurp the last of the sauce from the bowl. Some days, I just crave this comfort food so I came up with my own take on her recipe.
In my recipe, I cook some pork cubes. Then I prepare the sauce by combining the broth, water, soy sauce and sherry before adding onion, garlic, sugar, ginger, salt, pepper. This easy dish is a wholesome taste of my childhood! It makes enough for four people but you can easily double the recipe if you need to.
To make Ginger Pork, you will need the following ingredients:
In a large resealable food bag, place the pork cubes and flour. Seal the bag and shake vigorously until the pork is fully coated.
Heat the oil in a large wok or pan.
When the oil is hot, add the pork and brown quickly. Remove from the wok with a slotted spoon and set to one side. Pour the remaining oil from the wok.
In same wok or pan, mix the chicken broth, water, soy sauce and sherry together.
Stir in the green onion, garlic, sugar, ginger, salt, pepper and pork cubes.
Once you have brought the sauce to a boil, turn the heat down low and cover. Allow the sauce to simmer until pork is tender (about 15 minutes).
If the sauce thickens too much while simmering, add more water until it is at your desired consistency.
This ginger pork is great served over steamed white rice.

La receta de Ginger Pork es simplemente genial. Me recuerda cuando mi abuela lo hacía y me lo servía sobre arroz. Ayer lo probé y el sabor fue como un viaje de vuelta a mi niñez. La salsa es rica y fácil de hacer, aunque yo le puse un poco más de jengibre porque me gusta. ¡Definitivamente lo haré de nuevo!
