Pan-Seared Pork with Garlic Potatoes and Stir-Fried Asparagus
Tender pork slices pan-seared to golden perfection, served with fragrant garlic potatoes and lightly stir-fried crisp asparagus, creating a flavorful and nutritionally balanced home-style dish.
Ingredients
- Pork loin 300g, sliced
- Potatoes 2, peeled and cut into uneven chunks
- Asparagus 1 bunch, trimmed and cut into segments
Seasoning
- Garlic 3 cloves, sliced
- Olive oil as needed
- Salt to taste
- Black pepper to taste
- Rosemary a pinch (optional)
Instructions
Heat a pan with olive oil, sear pork slices until golden brown on both sides, season with salt and black pepper, then set aside.
Using the remaining oil, sauté garlic slices until fragrant, add potatoes and stir-fry until lightly browned. Add a little water and simmer for about 10 minutes until the potatoes are tender.
In a separate pan, heat a small amount of oil, quickly stir-fry asparagus for 2–3 minutes, then season with salt.
Return the seared pork and potatoes to the pan and toss together briefly, then add the asparagus and mix well before serving.
For extra aroma, add a pinch of rosemary when searing the pork if desired.
Chef Tips
Marinate the pork for 10 minutes beforehand with soy sauce, cooking wine, and black pepper for enhanced flavor.
Cook the potatoes only until about 80% done to prevent them from falling apart.
Avoid overcooking the asparagus to maintain its crisp texture and vibrant green color.
