Char Siu Pork Corn and Bok Choy Stir Fry

Submitted by The Flying Chef

"Here is another wok recipe I like stir fry's as they are quick, easy and reasonably priced to prepare and they are a great way to use up your left over vegetables in a nutritious meal. I served as is but it would go well with steamed rice, as I said yesterday we are watching our carb intake at the moment. This again would serve 3 good portions 4 smaller ones as is, or 4 good portions if served with rice. Note: Char Siu Sauce also know as chinese BBQ sauce. It is a paste like ingredient that is dark-red-brown in colour and has a sweet and spicy flavour. Made from fermented soy beans, honey and various spices."

Delicious, fast, and tasty! Different than other stir fries I've tried. I did not know what Char Siu Sauce was and was happy to find a recipe for it posted by DrGaellon on Food.com. It was quick and easy to stir up and I was able to have dinner on the table in a flash. Thanks for broadening my culinary horizons. This was wonderful!

So easy to put together and delicious. I did also add a 120g can of champignons and as I coudln't get baby bok choy so used gai lan and 3 red chillies deseeded 2 of them, just the right amount of tangy sweetness and zing. Thank you The Flying Chef, made for Edition 7 - Make My Recipe.
