PORK LO MEIN

On the side bar of my blog I have a "bucket list" for 2009, and one of the things I listed was to try a new recipe everyweek. Every week might be pushin' it but it's a goal of mine.

Tonight was "Try a new recipe night"

You start with 8 oz of lean pork tenderloin (cut in strips)

Here are some of the ingrediants...

In the small white cup above is fresh ginger root and garlic.

A cambodian friend of mine brought me the ginger root since I had no idea what is was and she had plenty at home. She told me I needed to use the real thing, not just the powdered ginger you find in a can in the bakery isle in the grocery store. (Thanks Mealdey)

~~~

The oils and sauces and a little salt for the pasta.

~~~~~

I went with the whole mushrooms in a jar cuz I thought they would be easier to pick out. To my surprise there was no one picking them out.

~~~~~~

The pork needs to marinate for 20 minutes in the soysauce garlic and ginger.

So while you wait start the water boiling for the pasta.

~~~

Stir-fry the pork along with the mushrooms for about 6 minutes

~~~~

Add chicken broth, more soy sauce, carrots, sesame oil and pasta

and you've got yourself some ....
