Stir-fried Pickled Radish with Pork


Since I left SA two weeks ago, I've been eating pork almost everyday. ;-) Actually I'm not a pork person and I used to think that I could survive without pork in my diet. Well, obviously I was wrong! Anyway, I'm going to satisfy my craving for the time being, so stay tuned for more pork dishes!

Stir-fried Pickled Radish with Pork Recipe

Seasoning:
1/2 tablespoon oyster sauce
1 teaspoon light soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon sugar
Salt and pepper, to taste

We cook this dish at home too, except that we don't add pork, just long beans, tau kwa, chai por, dried shrimps, lap cheong, roasted peanuts and chilli.
This looks delicious. I couldn't imagine a year in SA without pork. Looking forward to more dishes. Glad you arrived safely back at home.

This dish looks and sounds so homely to me. My mom used to cook it. I haven't tried pickled radish for a long time. Quite scared to buy China products now.
