Instructions
- Trim pork of any fat and cut into 1" cubes. Combine with egg and soy sauce and allow to marinate 20 minutes while preparing the remaining ingredients.
- Combine all sauce ingredients and mix well. Set aside.
- Remove pork from marinade (remove any excess marinade) and gently toss with flour and cornstarch.
- Heat oil in a wok or large frying pan over medium high heat. Add pork and cook without stirring 3 minutes on one side or until a crust forms. Continuing cooking just until pork is cooked through but still slightly pink, about 3 more minutes.
