Ingredients

• 500 grams Ground pork
• 1 head Savoy cabbage
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 4 cloves Garlic cloves
• 1 teaspoon Ginger
• 1 Red chili
• 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Fish sauce
• 1 tablespoon Oyster sauce
• 1 tablespoon Lime juice
• 2 teaspoons Brown sugar
• 2 Green onions
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro leaves
• 4 servings Cooked jasmine rice

Directions

Step 1

Core and thinly slice the Savoy cabbage into ribbons and set aside.

Step 2

Finely mince the garlic cloves, grate the ginger, and thinly slice the red chili. Chop the green onions into small pieces and roughly chop the fresh cilantro leaves for garnish.

Step 3

Heat the vegetable oil in a large wok or frying pan over medium-high heat.

Step 4

Add the minced garlic, grated ginger, and sliced red chili to the pan. Stir-fry for about 30 seconds, or until fragrant.

Step 5

Add the ground pork to the pan and cook, breaking it up with a spatula, until browned and fully cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 6

In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, fish sauce, oyster sauce, lime juice, and brown sugar until well combined. Pour the sauce mixture over the cooked pork and stir to coat evenly.

Step 7

Add the sliced Savoy cabbage to the pan and stir-fry for 3-5 minutes, or until the cabbage is tender but still slightly crisp.

Step 8

Taste the dish and adjust seasoning if needed by adding a little more soy sauce or lime juice, depending on your preference.

Step 9

Remove from heat and sprinkle chopped green onions and fresh cilantro over the dish.

Step 10

Serve immediately over cooked jasmine rice for a complete meal.
