Eating Well magazine - serves 4

You know me, I love a good stir-fry. This was very nice.
Adjust the chile-garlic sauce to your tolerance.

8 ounces soba or rice noodles
1 pound pork tenderloin, trimmed
1/3 cup water
1/4 cup Shao Hsing rice vinegar or dry sherry
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 teaspoons cornstarch

1 tablespoon peanut or canola oil
1 medium onion, halved, then sliced thinly
1 pound bok choy, trimmed and cut into long, thin strips
1 tablespoon minced garlic

1 teaspoon to 1 Tablespoon chile-garlic sauce
1 Bring a large stockpot of water to a boil. Add noodles and cook according to package directions. Drain, rinse with cold water and set aside.


2 Meanwhile, slice pork into thin rounds; cut each round into matchsticks. Whisk water, rice wine (or sherry), soy sauce and cornstarch together in a small bowl.


3 Heat oil in a large wok or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until beginning to soften, 2 to 3 minutes. Add bok choy and cook, stirring occasionally, until beginning to soften, about 5 minutes. Add the pork, garlic and chile-garlic sauce; cook, stirring, until the pork is just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes.


4 Whisk the cornstarch mixture again, add it to the pan and bring to a boil. Cook, stirring, until the sauce has thickened. Serve the pork and vegetables over the noodles.
