Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Marinate strips of pork in a mixture of half a teaspoon garlic, one tablespoon soy sauce, sherry, cornstarch and one tablespoon sesame oil for one hour. Heat four quarts salted water for noodles.

  2. Step 2

    Heat peanut oil in wok or heavy frying pan. Stir-fry scallions, ginger and remaining garlic two to three minutes. Meanwhile, put noodles into boiling water, cook three minutes or until al dente. Drain and place in heated serving bowl with tablespoon of sesame oil to prevent sticking.

  3. Step 3

    Add pork to scallions and ginger and stir-fry until lightly browned (two to three minutes). Add asparagus and spinach and cook until spinach wilts.

  4. Step 4

    Add orange juice, deglaze cooking juices. Stir in hoisin sauce and remaining soy sauce. Put pork mixture on top of noodles and serve.

I found it to be tasty enough but I would have liked to see some stronger flavors and maybe a little heat. Would make it again.

Found this rather blah, given all the garlic, ginger and sauces. Used marsala wine as I had no sherry. Added some extra veggies [carrot, mushroom, bell pepper].

A delicious and sturdy recipe. Used hard apple cider as I had no sherry. Rice flour in place of corn starch. But it turned out deliciously — even though its cook was more distracted than usual!
