Note

Ensure the oil is sufficiently hot before adding the pork to achieve a good sear.

Adjust the amount of water based on how much sauce you prefer; less water for a drier stir-fry, more for a soupier consistency.

For extra flavor, consider adding minced garlic or ginger at the beginning of the cooking process.

This dish is best served immediately while hot and crisp.
