PORK
  1. Toss the cubed pork with 2 tablespoons of corn starch and mix until coated.
  2. Cook the pork in batches: Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large non-stick skillet and add half the pork. Cook over medium high heat, for 4 - 5 minutes until the pork is browned and cooked through. Remove to a bowl. Add the remaining oil and cook the remaining pork. Remove to bowl and set aside.
