02Steps
  1. Rinse the preserved radish thoroughly under running water to reduce saltiness, then squeeze out excess water and dice finely. Set aside.
  2. Marinate the minced pork with white pepper and cornstarch for 10 minutes.
  3. Heat cooking oil in a wok or large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic and stir-fry until fragrant.
  4. Add the marinated minced pork to the wok and stir-fry until it turns opaque and is almost cooked through, breaking it apart with your spatula.
  5. Add the diced preserved radish and Shaoxing wine. Stir-fry for another 2 minutes.
  6. Stir in light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, and water. Bring to a simmer and cook for 1 minute to allow flavors to meld.
  7. Stir in the chopped spring onions just before serving. Serve hot with steamed rice.
