| 1 | Tablespoon Cornstarch |
| 1 | Cup Water |
| 3 | Slices Ginger |

| 1 | Tablespoon Vinegar |
| 1 | Tablespoon Rice Wine |
| 2 | Cups Pork Broth |
| 2 | Tablespoons Soy Sauce |
Instructions:
-
Marinate Pork: Begin by marinating the pork. Take your pork and marinate it for 1 hour. This will allow the flavors to infuse and tenderize the meat.
-
-
Cook Pork: After marinating, sprinkle the pork with cornstarch. Then, heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the pork until it turns a beautiful golden brown color. This will take a few minutes on each side.
-
Prepare Sauce: While the pork is cooking, let’s prepare the sauce. In a small bowl, combine all the ingredients for the sauce – soy sauce, tomato sauce, vinegar, rice wine, pork broth, and soy sauce. Mix them well and set the sauce aside for later use.
-
Sauté Vegetables: In the same skillet used for cooking the pork, add in the minced garlic, chopped onions, sliced jalapeno pepper, ginger slices, bamboo shoots, and green bell pepper. Sauté them until they become fragrant and slightly tender. This should take about a minute.
-
Add Pork: Once the vegetables are sautéed, add the cooked pork back into the skillet along with the other vegetables.
-
Pour Sauce: Now, pour the prepared sauce mixture over the pork and vegetables in the skillet. Give it a good stir to ensure everything is coated in the flavorful sauce.
-
Bring to Boil: Turn up the heat slightly and bring the mixture to a boil. This will help meld all the flavors together and create a delicious sauce.
-
Thicken Sauce: In a separate bowl, mix together cornstarch with a little water to create a slurry. Pour this cornstarch mixture into the skillet with the pork and sauce, stirring constantly. Allow the sauce to simmer and thicken until it reaches your desired consistency.
-
Serve: Once the sauce has thickened to your liking, it’s ready to serve! Plate the Szechuan pork alongside some steamed rice for a complete and satisfying meal.
