Stir fired pork with oyster sauce

I cannot believe it took this many recipes in this blog to finally come to the point that we have to say. Although most 'celebrity chefs' are not the best cooks in the world, we do love Nigel Slater. He makes hearty portions with simple combinations of ingredients and is not afraid a little (or a lot) fat. There will be a number of his recipes that will be covered in this blog in the future but this is the first one - stir fried pork with oyster sauce

 Ingredients:
500g pork shoulder, cubed
4 escallion shallots, finely chopped
3 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
250g mushrooms (we used chestnut, but shiitake are the best)
4 small red chillies, finely chopped, seeds included
3 tbsp rice vinegar
3 tbsp oyster sauce
1,5 nests of Chinese noodles, cooked

Preparation

Heat some vegetable oil in the wok and place the pork and fry until cooked golden. Cook it in two badges to make sure the pan is not overcrowded and the meat is cooked through. Take the pork out of the wok and set aside. Place the shallots, garlic and chillies into the wok and fry until the shallots are soft but not browned. Then add the mushrooms and cook for 2-3min, then add the pork, vinegar and oyster sauce. Mix everything together over a high heat to make sure everything is hot.

Serve the meat with the cooked noodles, either mixed together or on the side. Enjoy!
