Instructions
Prepare Ingredients
Slice the pork into thin strips. Wash and cut garlic scapes into 1.5-inch pieces. Thinly slice the onion. In a small bowl, whisk together all sauce ingredients: minced garlic, grated ginger, soy sauce, sake, mirin, sesame oil, sugar, and chicken stock/water. Set aside.
Stir-fry Pork
Heat vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat. Add the pork strips and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until cooked through and lightly browned. Remove the pork from the wok and set aside.
Cook Vegetables
Add the sliced onion to the wok and stir-fry for 1-2 minutes until slightly softened. Add the garlic scapes and continue to stir-fry for another 3-4 minutes until they are tender-crisp and bright green.
Combine and Sauce
Return the cooked pork to the wok with the vegetables. Give the prepared sauce a quick whisk again and pour it over the ingredients in the wok. Stir-fry for 1-2 minutes, tossing everything to coat evenly, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly. Serve immediately with steamed rice.
