Ingredients

  • onion 1 (sliced)
  • garlic cloves 2 (crushed)
  • ginger 5 g (grated)
  • chestnut mushrooms 200 g (sliced)
  • spring onions 2 (sliced)
  • pak choi 2 (sliced)
  • pork loin chops 4 (sliced)
  • hoisin sauce 4 tbsp
  • soy sauce 2 tbsp
  • rice vinegar 2 tbsp
  • honey 2 tbsp
  • sesame oil 1 tbsp
  • basmati rice 240 g
  • cornflour 2 tbsp
  • olive oil 2 tbsp
  • sesame seeds pinch

Method

  • Thinly slice the onion. Crush the garlic. Peel the ginger with the back of a spoon and grate it. Slice the chestnut mushrooms. Thinly slice the spring onions. Slice each pak choi into quarters. Slice the pork chops into thin slices
  • In a bowl large enough to fit the pork slices in, whisk together the hoisin sauce, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, honey, sesame oil, garlic and ginger until well combined. Add the pork chops and toss well to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 20 minutes (if you have time to marinate it or else cook straight away - it will still be delicious!)
  • Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened. Add the mushrooms and cook for a further 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden
  • Cook the rice according to the packet instructions
  • Meanwhile, remove the pork from the marinade and add to the pan with the onion. Make sure you scrape the bowl to add all the marinade to the pan. Cook for 10 minutes, turning occasionally, until cooked through. Add the pak choi and cook until it wilts down. Season with salt and a drizzle of sesame oil
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the cornflour and 1/2 a tablespoon cold water per serving, until smooth. Pour the cornflour mixture into the frying pan and stir to combine. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly, until thickened
  • Top the cooked rice with the pork and veg, garnish with the spring onions and sesame seeds and enjoy!
