Oriental
Pork and Walnut Nuggets
- 1 whole pork tenderloin,
about 1 pound
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger root
1/3 cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons dry sherry
1/4 teaspoon granulated sugar
1 garlic clove, minced
Walnut halves, as needed
- Slice pork across the
grain, as thinly as possible. This is easy to do if pork is partially
frozen. Slices should be about 1/16-inch thick.
- In medium bowl, stir together
ginger, soy sauce, sherry, sugar and garlic; add pork and marinate
30 minutes.
- Remove pork slices to
flat surface. Place a walnut half on each; roll up. Put pork
nuggets seam side down on broiler pan; broil 4-inches from heat
about 4 minutes on one side only.
Makes about 40 to 50 servings.
