Title: Braised Tung-Po Pork #1
Categories: Meat
Yield: 6 Servings

1 Scallion
2 sl Fresh ginger root
1 tb Sugar
2 tb Sherry
4 tb Soy sauce
1 ts Salt
3 tb Oil
2 lb Pork
2 c Water
1 Head Mustard cabbage

1. Cut scallion in 1/2-inch sections. Slice ginger root. Combine sugar,
sherry, soy sauce and salt.

2. Heat oil. Add ginger and scallion and stir-fry a few times. Stir in
sugar-sherry mixture to blend. Add pork and cook over low heat, turning
constantly for even coloring.

3. Meanwhile bring water to a boil in another pan; then add to pork.
Simmer, covered, until done (about 1-1/2 hours). Separate mustard cabbage
leaves.

4. Remove pork, but not liquids, from pan. Add cabbage leaves and cook,
uncovered, 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Meanwhile cut pork in slices
1/4 inch thick.

5. Drain cabbage. Transfer to a serving platter. Arrange pork slices on
top. Pour gravy over and serve.

VARIATION: In step 3, cook with pork, 1/4 cup dried haddock, squid or
turnip (soaked).
