SAUTEED PORK WITH SPRING ONIONS

This is a rather easy and simple meat dish to prepare yet the taste is delicious.

It is a homey dish and kind of a mother’s signature dish for most families but my mum prepares it without addition of black pepper.  The addition of this ingredient does give it an added aroma and taste. 

The meat slices are aromatic, tasty and I love the spring onions.  Add more if you like the fragrance and sweetness of spring onions. Best to use really tender meat because this is a pan fry dish without braised.
