Description

An easy, healthy, and flavourful dinner using fresh ingredients, wonderful Asian noodles, and a “to die for” sweet and savoury sauce. Best of all, the entire thing can be prepped ahead of time.

Ingredients

  • FOR THE MARINADE:
  • ½ cups Tomato Ketchup
  • ¼ cups Rice Wine Vinegar
  • ½ cups Brown Sugar
  • ¼ cups Hoisin Sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Chili Sauce
  • 2 Tablespoons Soy Sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Sesame Oil
  • 3 cloves Minced Garlic
  • ¼ teaspoons Chinese Five Spice Powder
  • _____
  • FOR THE PREPARATION:
  • 1 piece Pork Tenderloin, Thinly Sliced
  • 14 ounces, weight Package Chinese Noodles (not Ramen)
  • 2 Tablespoons Canola Oil
  • 1 teaspoon Sesame Oil
  • 1 whole Large Onion, Chopped
  • 2 cups Broccoli Florets
  • 1 whole Sweet Red Pepper, Diced
  • 8 whole Button Mushrooms, Sliced
  • 2 cups Roasted Unsalted Cashews

Preparation

Begin by combining the marinade ingredients together in a large bowl. Set aside.

Meanwhile, thinly slice a pork tenderloin. One tenderloin per four people. Place the pork in the marinade and marinate one hour.

When ready to stir fry:
1. Heat 1 Tablespoon of canola oil, and 1 teaspoon sesame oil in a wok set to high. Add the vegetables and cook until the onions are transluscent and the mushrooms begin to release their water. Remove from wok and set aside.
2. In the meantime, cook four squares of Chinese noodles in boiling water for around one minute. Drain and set aside.
3. Heat a second Tablespoon of canola oil in the wok and add your pork. Reserve the marinade.
4. When the pork is cooked (juices run clear), add the reserved marinade to the wok and bring to a boil. Boil for one minute stirring contantly and then add the vegetables and two handfulls of roasted, unsalted cashews. Toss that up and add the cooked noodles.
5. Continue to stir fry on medium high heat until the sauce is well incorporated with the noodles.

Serve and enjoy!

I was worried I wasn’t going to like this when making the marinade, but it turned out great. I loved the flavor. We added a little chicken in as well, and the cashews were a great touch.
