INSTRUCTIONS
1. Dice and cook pork as in Basic Deep-fried Pork (see recipe).
2. Dice Chinese cabbage, celery, onion and bamboo shoots. Stem snow
peas. Crush garlic. Blend cornstarch, soy sauce and water to a paste.
3. Heat oil. Add salt, then garlic, and stir-fry to brown lightly. Add
all vegetables; stir fry 2 minutes.
4. Stir in and heat stock quickly, then cook, covered, over medium heat
until vegetables are nearly done (about 2 minutes).
5. Add deep-fried pork cubes and cook, covered, only to heat through
(about 1 minute). Then stir in cornstarch paste to thicken and serve at
once.
NOTE: Leftover deep-fried pork cubes can be used in this recipe. They
may be combined with other stir-fried vegetables in the same way.
