How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose delicious roast pork
- You can buy ready-made roast pork or buy fresh pork to roast at home to ensure the quality of the meat and the flavor of the dish.
- Delicious roast pork must have a crispy golden skin, with the meat inside evenly roasted without being dry; it should remain tender and have a certain level of moisture.
- Roast pork from fresh meat still retains the connection between the skin and the pork, helping them stick together without falling apart.
- Avoid choosing pieces of roast pork that have skin and meat separating, with dark red meat, fat that is yellow or has strange spots; if the meat smells bad, you should absolutely avoid buying it as it is often spoiled.
How to choose delicious mustard greens
- You should pay attention to choose bunches of greens that are a slightly dark green color, with fresh leaves that are not eaten by pests, and the whole body intact without bruises.
- Observe to see that the leaves are still fresh, not wilted, and the stalk should be thick; do not choose those with very thin, skinny stalks as they are less sweet.
How to choose fresh shiitake mushrooms
- You should buy ones with bright colors, characteristic aroma, and avoid choosing mushrooms that are bruised or have a spoiled smell. A cut that oozes milky white substance is a sign of poisonous mushrooms. Avoid mushrooms with dark spots or wrinkles on the cap, and do not choose slimy mushrooms. Fresh mushrooms will have a thin, paper-like layer on them.
- Choose mushrooms with firm stems and uniform colors; if the mushrooms have opened and you can see gills on the cap, they should be evenly arranged, beautiful, and dry.
- When choosing fresh fragrant mushrooms, you should choose those with moderate caps, tightly closed, and slightly brownish-yellow colors. If you see very dark brown mushrooms, you should not buy them, as they may be poisonous.
How to prepare Roasted Pork Stir-Fried with Mustard Greens
-
Prepare the ingredients
The roasted pork should be sliced into thin pieces that are easy to eat, but be careful not to cut them too thin to avoid them breaking apart and losing flavor during cooking.
The mustard greens should be soaked in water, washed thoroughly to remove dirt, and then placed in a basket to drain. The shiitake mushrooms need to be cleaned of dirt, and you can cut them in half.
How to properly prepare shiitake mushrooms
- After purchasing the shiitake mushrooms, you can soak them in water to soften the dirt, then wash them clean and cut off the dirty stems.
- You can wash the mushrooms with rice water, which helps eliminate the natural pungent smell while still preserving their fresh flavor.
- Do not soak the mushrooms in water for too long; they will lose their natural sweetness.
-
Stir-fry shiitake mushrooms
Heat a pan on the stove, add 2 teaspoons of cooking oil to sauté 1 tablespoon of minced garlic. When the garlic starts to turn golden and fragrant, quickly add all the mushrooms and stir-fry.
Add 3 tablespoons of water, 1 tablespoon of marinade sauce, and season with 1/2 teaspoon of sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of seasoning powder, mixing well to ensure the mushrooms absorb all the flavors.
-
Stir-fry the ingredients together
Add all the sliced roasted pork into the pan with the mushrooms, and when the pork starts to firm up and absorb the seasoning, add the mustard greens into the pan, stir-frying evenly over medium heat to ensure all ingredients cook evenly.
When the vegetables in the pan are starting to cook, add about 1 teaspoon of sesame oil, and continue to mix until all the ingredients are fully cooked.
Tip:
- You should add the ingredients to the pan in the correct order for even cooking, preserving the delicious flavor of each ingredient.
- Stir-fry quickly over medium heat so that the mustard greens remain green and retain their natural crispness.
-
Final product
The roasted pork is tender and flavorful, soaking up rich seasonings, served alongside naturally sweet mustard greens stir-fried evenly with fresh shiitake mushrooms, all creating an irresistibly enticing flavor for the dish. Give it a try!
