I made this as a side dish without the pork. I used a 14 oz. frozen mix of broccoli, red bell pepper, green beans, sugar snap peas, and onions. I adapted it by stir frying the veggies in the oils with fresh garlic and ginger. I added some cornstarch to the broth, soy sauce, and vinegar (rice wine) and added that right at the end when the veggies were tender crisp. There was not as much of a punch of flavor as I'd have liked. Might do this next time with some sherry in place of the vinegar and a pinch of red pepper flakes. Still a good quick stir fry. Thanks for posting. Made for my Babes for ZWT4.

It was my first time doing a stir-fry. I loved the taste of the pork. It was tender. I used 1 small green bell pepper, diced. I used 2 stalks of celery that I cooked in the microwave. And almost 1 cup of mixed frozen vegetables (carrots, lima beans, cauliflower, sugar pea). I used the water (2 tablespoon). I served it on cooked rice. And we added no-sodium soy sauce. Thanks Crafty Lady. Made for ZWT 4 :)
