How to Make Lemon Grass Pork
- Marinate 1 lb sliced pork in 2 stalks lemongrass (finely minced), 2 tbsp cornstarch, 1 tsp black pepper, and 1 tbsp cooking wine for at least 15 minutes (longer is better!).
- Heat 2 tbsp oil in a wok or large frying pan over high heat.
- Add the marinated pork and stir-fry until no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes. Break up any large clumps.
- Add 2-3 red chilies (finely sliced), 1 tbsp brown sugar, 1/2 tsp salt, 2 cloves garlic (minced), 1/2 cup roasted peanuts (roughly chopped), and 2 green onions (thinly sliced).
- Stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes, until everything is well combined and heated through.
- Serve immediately over a bed of steamed white rice or rice noodles. Garnish with extra green onions, if desired.
