Spicy Orange Pork Stir Fry

Pork tenderloin chunks are stir fried in an orange based, thai curry paste along with chinese vegetables. The curry paste gives this dish a kick with a subtle flavor of oranges. More or less curry paste can be added to suit your hotness. This is great with rice or chinese noodles.
