Wok – pork and veggies

Gluten-freeLow carbPaleoLunchDinner

We often cook this during the week because it is quick to make and yummy. And because we like asian cuisine. And it has just a few ingredients.

Use a simple wok pan, not a fancy one. It should be round, made of steel and should have no coating – no anti-slip, ceramics or other coating. This is essential since we cook with it on very high temperatures. The coating would burn and peel sooner or later and you’ll end up eating it.

wok pork and veggies – plating

Start with plating for kids, as usual. Since mine hate having the food mixed, I place the veggies in the plate and the meat aside.

For the grown ups make a bed of veggies and place the meat on top, like in the picture here.
Bon appetit!
