Notes
Oil: Make sure the oil in your pan is super hot before you start cooking
Pepper: The type of peppers I used here are bell peppers.
Cut of pork: Pork loin medallions are perfect for this dish as they are super quick to cook. They are also really lean and tender. You can find pork medallions in all supermarkets or your local butcher
Cornflour: PLEASE NOTE that cornflour in the UK is NOT the same as it in the US! There it's known as 'corn starch'. Corn flour in the US is something different (the same as cornmeal in the UK), so please don't use this
Cooking the noodles: Cook the noodles until they’re just al dente. (You can also rinse them in cold water when you drain them to stop them cooking.) Then add them to your cooked pork, vegetables and sauce to warm through and let them soak up the sauce
Cooking the pork to perfection:
- Make sure the oil in your pan is super hot before you start cooking
- Don’t move the pork around too much when you first add it to the pan
- Pork medallions cook quickly in strips so be careful not to overcook them
