Preparation

Step 1

Heat a wok or large frying pan until it is hot. Swirl in the peanut oil, and when it is very hot and slightly smoking, add the pork and stir-fry it for 2 minutes. Stir constantly to break up any lumps.

Toss in the lettuce; pour in the soy sauce, rice wine, and sesame oil. Sprinkle in the sugar and continue to stir-fly for another 3 minutes, or until the pork is cooked.

Toss in the scallions and give the mixture several good stirs. Serve at once.
