How to Make Stir-Fried Cucumber with Pork

Estimated Cooking Difficulty: ★★★

Essential Ingredients and Tools

  • Cucumber
  • Lean Pork
  • Cooking Oil
  • Light Soy Sauce
  • Salt
  • Garlic
  • Thai Bird's Eye Chili

Calculation

Determine how many servings you plan to make before each preparation. One serving is exactly enough for 1 person.

Total Amounts:

  • Cucumber = 100 g * Number of servings
  • Pork = 50 g * Number of servings
  • Oil = 50 g * Number of servings
  • Salt = 10 g * Number of servings
  • Soy Sauce = 5 g * Number of servings
  • Garlic Cloves = 2 cloves * Number of servings
  • Thai Bird's Eye Chili = 1 piece * Number of servings

Instructions

  • Slice the lean pork, place it in a bowl, pour in 10 g of cooking oil and light soy sauce, mix well, and marinate for 10 minutes.
  • Trim 5 cm from both ends of the cucumber, then slice the remaining part diagonally into 0.5 cm thin slices.
  • Place the cucumber in a bowl, sprinkle with 8 g of salt, mix well, and marinate for 5 minutes.
  • Peel the garlic cloves, crush them, mince them, and set aside.
  • Remove the stems from the Thai Bird's Eye Chili and cut into uniform 0.5 cm pieces.
  • Heat the wok, pour in 40 g of oil, wait until the oil starts smoking, then add the minced garlic and chili, stir-frying 5 times.
  • Add the marinated pork, stir-fry until the meat is cooked and changes color.
  • Add the cucumber, add 2 g of salt, stir-fry on high heat for about half a minute, then remove from heat.
    • If you cannot maintain high heat, it might be undercooked. Consider increasing the time to 50 seconds.
