Ingredients
- 200g pork (thinly sliced)
- 200g chicken breast (thinly sliced)
- 1 cup rice (jasmine or short-grain)
- 2 tablespoons flour (for thickening)
- 50g peanuts (roughly chopped)
- 2 tomatoes (diced)
- 3 green onions (sliced)
- 1/4 head of red cabbage (finely shredded)
- Soy sauce (for seasoning)
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
- Vegetable oil (for frying)
Instructions
- Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a pot, combine the rice with 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for about 15 minutes. Once done, fluff it with a fork and set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine the sliced pork and chicken. Season with salt, pepper, and a splash of soy sauce. Toss them together and let them marinate for about 10 minutes.
- Grab a large wok or frying pan and heat a generous amount of vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
- Add the marinated pork and chicken to the hot pan. Stir-fry for about 5-7 minutes until they are golden brown and cooked through.
- Toss in the diced tomatoes, shredded red cabbage, and half of the green onions. Stir-fry for another 3-4 minutes until the cabbage is slightly wilted.
- Sprinkle the flour over the mixture and stir well to coat everything. Add a splash more soy sauce and a bit of water if it looks dry.
- Toss in the chopped peanuts for that delightful crunch. Stir everything together and let it cook for another minute.
- Plate the fluffy rice and top it with the stir-fry mixture. Garnish with the remaining green onions.
