Stir Fry Mustard Greens With Pork And Dry Tofu Recipes

Steps:

• Fill a large pot with water, and bring to a boil. Fill a bowl with ice water. When the water comes to a boil, salt generously and add the greens. Cook the greens 1 to 2 minutes, until just tender, and transfer with a slotted spoon or deep-fry skimmer to the ice water. Drain and squeeze out the water (you don't have to squeeze them completely dry). Chop coarsely.
• Cook the noodles. Bring the water in the pot back to a boil, add the noodles, and stir to separate the strands. Add a couple of tablespoons cold water, just so the water doesn't boil over. Boil somen noodles for two minutes, rice vermicelli for five to seven minutes, until tender. Drain and rinse with cold water. Place in a bowl of cold water, then drain and toss with the sesame oil. Set aside.
• Heat a large, heavy skillet or wok over high heat until hot enough to evaporate a drop of water on contact. Add 1 tablespoon of the oil, swirl to coat the pan, and reduce the heat to medium-high. Add the pork, and stir-fry for two to three minutes, until the meat is cooked through and there are no longer any traces of pink.
• Add the remaining oil, ginger and garlic, and stir-fry until fragrant and beginning to color, about 20 to 30 seconds. Stir in the greens, noodles, soy sauce and stock or water. Stir together until heated through, and serve.

Steps:

• Cook the tofu: Heat a large heavy-bottomed skillet or wok over high heat. Add 3 tablespoons oil. When the oil begins to smoke, remove the skillet from the heat and quickly (and carefully!) add the tofu in a single layer. Return the skillet to high heat and cook, stirring from time to time, until the tofu is lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Carefully remove the tofu to a plate. Add the coriander seeds and toast for 15 seconds. Add the ground pork in a single layer, then sprinkle with salt and the red pepper flakes and brown over medium-high heat until cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and add the pork to the tofu.
• Cook the vegetables: Return the skillet to the heat and add the remaining tablespoon oil. Stir in the garlic and scallions and cook over medium heat for about 1 minute. Add the snow peas and peppers and cook until they become tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the soy sauce, honey, ginger and lemon zest and juice. Simmer for an additional minute. Taste for seasoning.
• Finish: Add the pork and tofu back to the skillet and gently stir to reheat and combine, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a platter and add the vinegar and additional soy sauce to taste.

Steps:

• In a wok, heat grape seed oil over medium. Sauté ginger and garlic for 20 seconds.
• Add pork and white pepper powder and combine well.
• Increase heat to high. Stir-fry pork until 80% is cooked. Add rice wine, soy bean paste, tofu and chili peppers. Continue to stir-fry until pork is completely cooked.
• Stir in mustard greens and the next five ingredients. Reduce heat to medium high. Cover and cook until green soybeans are completely cooked through, about 3-5 minutes.
• Uncover and turn off heat. Stir in sesame seed oil.
• Serve with steamed rice or boiled Chinese-style noodles.

Steps:

• Leaving the greens tied in a bunch, cut off half an inch of stem and chop the greens into three-inch lengths, separating stems from leafy part. Slice the pork thin, then shred.
• Combine the cornstarch, sherry and sugar and mix well. Add the oyster and soy sauces and set aside.
• Heat the oil in a wok or skillet. Add the ginger, garlic and scallions and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Add the pork and stir-fry for one minute. Add the mustard green stems and stir-fry for one minute. Add the leaves and stir-fry for 30 seconds, then add the sauce. Stir-fry for a few more seconds until well mixed. Serve immediately.
