Spread the love

Ingredients for 4 servings:

  • 400 g pork loin(s) or fillet
  • ½ m.-sized pineapple, fresh
  • 1 tbsp oil
  • 4 clove(s) garlic, chopped
  • 4 spring onions, chopped
  • 1 tbsp fish sauce
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce, light
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 15 g coriander leaves, fresh
  • 15 g mint, fresh, chopped
  • possibly sugar, brown

Instructions

Working time approx. 25 minutes; Total time approx. 25 minutes

Cut the pork into very thin slices; this works best if you freeze the meat slightly first. Peel the pineapple, remove the tough core, and cut the flesh into bite-sized pieces. Heat the oil in a wok or frying pan and fry the garlic and spring onions for 1 minute, then remove. Heat the wok to high and add the meat in 2 or 3 batches, stirring constantly for 3 minutes each. Return all the meat and the garlic and onion mixture to the wok with the pineapple pieces. Add the fish sauce and lime juice and mix. If desired, add a little brown sugar if the pineapple is not very sweet. Roughly chop the coriander and mint, sprinkle over the meat, and fold in. Serve with cooked rice.
