What You Need
Instructions
In bowl, stir together 1 tbsp (15 mL) of the cornstarch, 1 tbsp (15 mL) of the soy sauce, and sherry (if using); add pork and stir to coat well.
In separate bowl, stir milk with remaining 1 tbsp (15 mL) cornstarch, remaining 2 tbsp (30 mL) soy sauce and hot pepper sauce; set aside.
Separate broccoli into florets; peel and chop stalks to make 6 cups (1.5L) total broccoli.
In wok or large nonstick skillet, heat oil over high heat. Add pork mixture, carrots and onion; stir-fry for 4 min or until meat is lightly browned. Stir in garlic, ginger and broccoli; stir-fry for 2 min. Stir in milk mixture; cook, stirring often, for 4 min or until sauce is thickened and broccoli is tender-crisp.
Tips
For the Adventurous: Add 1 tsp (5 mL) dark sesame oil to the milk or sprinkle the finished dish with toasted sesame seeds.
Healthy Eating Tip: Pork is more lean than it used to be. It is an excellent source of thiamin and niacin and a good source of zinc. Milk is also a source of zinc.
