  • 6 ounces pork shoulder
  • For the marinade:
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1/2 teaspoon light soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Shaoxing rice wine
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon sugar
  • 3 tablespoon vegetable oil

    In a medium bowl soak the mushrooms in cold water until soften about 30 minutes. Thinly slice the mushrooms and set aside.

    Heat wok over high heat. Swirl in 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil and add the pork. Cook undisturbed for 15 seconds, letting the pork brown slightly. Then stir-fry for 1 minute longer until pork is tender.
