Basic Ingredients- 1 ripe avocado
- 2 Korean green chili peppers (cheongyang peppers)
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1/2 onion
- 1/3 stalk green onion (scallion)
- 200g pork hind leg meat (thinly sliced for stir-fry)
- 2 Tbsp cornstarch or potato starch
- 2 Tbsp sesame oil
- 1 Tbsp minced garlic
- 1 Tbsp cooking wine (mirin or similar)
- 1.5 Tbsp oyster sauce
- 1 Tbsp corn syrup (oligosaccharide)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare your fresh avocado. Cut it in half, remove the pit, and carefully separate the creamy flesh from the skin.
Step 2
Ensure all traces of the pit are removed from the avocado flesh. Handle the avocado gently to maintain its fresh texture.
Step 3
Cut the prepared avocado flesh into bite-sized pieces, about 2cm cubes or wedges. Be careful not to cut them too small, as they can become mushy during stir-frying.
Step 4
Finely chop the Korean green chili peppers after washing and removing their stems. Adjust the quantity to your preferred level of spice.
Step 5
Thinly slice the garlic cloves. Slicing them thinly will help release more of their aromatic flavor when stir-fried.
Step 6
Peel and wash the onion, then slice it into thin strips about 0.5cm thick. This will add sweetness and texture to the dish.
Step 7
Cut the green onion into long pieces, about 4-5cm in length. Using both the white and green parts will add a nice balance.
Step 8
Pat the pork hind leg meat dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. Then, coat the pork evenly with 2 tablespoons of starch. This coating will make the pork tender and help it absorb the sauce better.
Step 9
Now, let’s stir-fry! Heat a pan over high heat and add 2 tablespoons of sesame oil. Add the minced garlic, sliced garlic, green onion, and chili peppers. Stir-fry for about 1 minute until fragrant. It’s important to let the garlic and green onion release their aroma into the oil.
Step 10
Once the vegetables become fragrant, add the starch-coated pork and 1 tablespoon of cooking wine. Keep the heat on high and stir constantly to break up any clumps of pork. Stir-fry until the pork is no longer pink and is fully cooked.
Step 11
When the pork is cooked through, add the cubed avocado, 1.5 tablespoons of oyster sauce, and 1 tablespoon of corn syrup. Stir-fry quickly over high heat for about 1 minute until everything is well combined. Avoid overcooking the avocado, as it can become too soft. Your delicious Avocado Pork Stir-Fry is ready!
