My daughter's boyfriend's mom gave her a cookbook that was created by the Houston Ballet for their Nutcracker Christmas Market in 1984. The recipes in the book were submitted by directors, choreographers, and dancers in the Houston Ballet that year. This recipe was submitted by Li Cunxin, Principal Dancer.
Ingredients:
1 lb lean pork loin
15 garlic cloves
4 stalks celery
1 green bell pepper
1 teaspoon brown rice vinegar
3 tablespoons peanut oil
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 pinch sea salt
Directions:
1. Cut pork into 1 slices. Peel and mince the garlic. Chop the celery and green pepper into 1 pieces.
2. Heat a wok (dry), then add 2 tablespoons of peanut oil. When oil is heated add half of the chopped garlic. Stir until garlic turns light brown in color.
3. Add the pork and stir-fry until it begins to turn white. Add the soy sauce and rice vinegar and stir for 30 seconds. Remove all ingredients from wok and set aside.
4. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of peanut oil to the heated wok. Add the remaining chopped garlic and stir until it begins to brown.
5. Add the celery pieces and stir for 30 seconds. Add the green pepper and stir for 15 seconds.
6. Add a pinch of sea salt and stir quickly. Add the pork mixture that was set aside and stir for 2 minutes.
7. Sprinkle sesame oil over the dish and turn off heat. Cover and let sit for 1 minute.
8. Serve immediately with rice or noodles.
