Method
- Mix the pork with the marinade and set it aside.
- Heat the wok on high until smoking. Add 1 tbsp oil and stir-fry the pork 2–3 minutes, until browned at the edges. Set it aside.
- On medium-high, add the rest of the oil with the peppers and aromatics. Fry 30–60 seconds until the peppers blister, without burning the garlic.
- Splash in the wine and stir 10 seconds.
- Return the pork with the sugar and dark soy sauce, toss a few seconds on high, and serve.
