Ginger Garlic Pork With Sizzling Rice Food

LEMON GINGER BASMATI RICE

Steps:

• Place the rice in a large pot and rinse under cold running water until the water runs clear. Drain well and add 4 1/2 cups water to the pot. Sprinkle with the salt and add the butter, ginger and lemon zest. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Cover and cook 15 minutes without removing the lid.
• Remove the lid and fluff the rice with a fork. Cover again and keep warm until ready to serve. For drier rice, leave the lid off after fluffing. Sprinkle with the chopped cilantro before serving.

POT STICKER: GINGER PORK

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, add the pork, onions, ginger, garlic, green onions, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt and pepper. Mix together until thoroughly combined.
• In a medium stock pot, boil 2 quarts of water.
• Place 1 tablespoon of the mixture in the middle of a wrapper. Brush the edges of the wrapper with the end and fold in half. Repeat with the remaining wrappers.
• Place wrappers in boiling water for 1 minute, remove, and cool individually on cooling rack.
• When ready for service, heat saute pan with 1 teaspoon oil, and saute on medium-high heat until the skin of the wrapper is browned.

EASY GARLIC GINGER GLAZED STICKY PORK

Steps:

• In a liquid measuring cup or a small mixing bowl, whisk together the mild honey, sriracha, and rice wine vinegar. Set aside.
• Pour the oil into a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium high heat and swirl to coat. Let it heat until it is shimmering. While the oil heats, sprinkle the pork strips with kosher salt and black pepper then toss with your hands to distribute it evenly. Carefully add the pork to the pan, working in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. Let the first side brown, flip the pieces with tongs or a spatula, and brown the second side. Transfer the pork to a plate.
• Return the pan to the heat and add in the garlic and ginger. Stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
• Raise the heat to high and pour in the sauce mixture and bring to a boil, stirring frequently. When the sauce is very bubbly and thickened like warm honey, toss the pork back in and toss constantly to coat everything and reduce the sauce to a thick, sticky glaze on the pork. This can be served immediately over rice, noodles, or as finger food, or can be allowed to cool and be eaten cold.

STIR-FRIED PORK WITH GINGER & HONEY

Steps:

• Bring a pan of salted water to the boil and cook the noodles following pack instructions. Meanwhile, mix the cornflour with 1 tbsp water, then stir in the soy sauce and honey, and set aside.
• Heat the oil in a wok over a high heat. Add the pork and cook for 2 mins until browned all over. Add the ginger, garlic, pepper and mangetout, and cook for a further 2 mins. Reduce the heat, then add the soy and honey mixture, stirring and cooking until the sauce bubbles and thickens. Divide the drained noodles between 2 bowls. Top with the pork and vegetables, and finish with a sprinkling of sesame seeds.

GARLIC RICE

Steps:

• Peel garlic, then use a Microplane to grate cloves into a small bowl. Set aside. In a medium pot over medium-high heat, add oil and butter. Heat until butter is melted and frothy, 1-2 minutes, then add garlic and stir until fragrant and lightly golden, 1-2 minutes. Add rice and stir so each individual grain is coated in the butter and oil. Scrape down the sides of the pot and toast rice, 30 seconds.
• Add water and salt and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce to a simmer. Cover the pot with foil to prevent any steam from escaping, then place a lid over the foil and simmer, 20 minutes. Remove pot from heat and allow rice to continue steaming, covered, 10 minutes.
• Taste the rice. If rice is undercooked, drizzle 2-3 tablespoons water on top, but don't stir it in; cover the pot again and simmer on lowest heat, 5-10 minutes. Fluff the rice in the pot with a wooden spoon and serve.
• When serving, leave rice that sticks to bottom of the pot. Turn the heat to high and let the oil fry the rice till crispy, 5 minutes. (This is a special chef's snack called concolon!)

GINGER PORK

Steps:

• Place cubed pork and flour together in a resealable plastic bag. Seal and shake. Meanwhile, heat oil in a large skillet or wok. When hot, add coated pork and brown quickly; remove with a slotted spoon and set aside. Pour off remaining oil.
• In same skillet combine the chicken broth, water, soy sauce and sherry. Stir together and add the green onion, garlic, sugar, ginger, salt, pepper and reserved pork cubes. Bring all to a boil. Then lower heat, cover and let simmer 15 minutes or until pork is tender. Check occasionally to make sure sauce is not thickening too much. If needed, add more water.
