For the pork & marinade:
- 1/2 pound pork (225g, thinly sliced)
- 1 teaspoon light soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Shaoxing wine (or dry sherry)
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 slice ginger (minced)
For the eggs:
- 3 eggs
- 1 teaspoon Shaoxing wine (or dry sherry)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon oil
For the rest of the dish:
- 2 tablespoons oil
- 2 scallions (chopped)

Instructions
- First, combine the pork with the marinade ingredients and set aside for 20-30 minutes.

- Heat the wok over high heat once again, and add 2 tablespoons of oil. When the oil starts to smoke, add the pork and sear the meat until lightly browned. Then add the chopped scallion and stir.
- Next, add the sliced cucumbers and wood ear mushrooms. Stir fry to thoroughly combine the ingredients. Now it’s time to add the Shaoxing wine, light soy sauce, oyster sauce and water.
