Ingredients

• 500 g Pork tenderloin
• 80 ml Hoisin sauce
• 30 ml Soy sauce
• 15 ml Rice vinegar
• 15 ml Honey
• 2 pieces Garlic cloves
• 1 tbsp Ginger
• 1 tbsp Cornstarch
• 2 tbsp Water
• 15 ml Sesame oil
• 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
• 3 pieces Green onions
• 1 tbsp Sesame seeds

Directions

Step 1

Trim any excess fat from the pork tenderloin and slice it into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix hoisin sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Set the sauce mixture aside.

Step 3

In another small bowl, mix cornstarch and water to form a slurry. This will be used to thicken the sauce later.

Step 4

Heat a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat and add 2 tbsp of vegetable oil.

Step 5

Once the oil is hot, add the pork strips in a single layer (cook in batches if needed) and sear for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. Remove the pork and set it aside.

Step 6

Add sesame oil to the wok and pour in the prepared sauce mixture. Let it simmer for 2 minutes while stirring regularly.

Step 7

Add the cooked pork back to the wok, stirring to coat the meat evenly in the sauce.

Step 8

Pour the cornstarch slurry into the wok and continue stirring until the sauce thickens, about 1-2 minutes.

Step 9

Turn off the heat and garnish the dish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.

Step 10

Serve hot with steamed rice or sautéed vegetables.
