Fried Spaghetti and Pork
Recipe by Graham
Fried Spaghetti and Pork is a cunning combination of Italian and Oriental cooking that will truly delight your taste buds. It's an unusual but delicious way to use the delicate strands of spaghetti in an Asian-inspired pork stir-fry. The flavors of oyster sauce, soy sauce and a hint of spicy chile sauce cling to the beautiful strands.

How to Cook Fried Spaghetti and Pork
- Bring a large pan of slightly salted water to the boil then add the spaghetti. Cook according to the instructions on the packet (usually about 15-20 minutes in boiling water). You can check to see if the spaghetti is cooked by removing a strand on the end of a fork.
- Meanwhile slice the pork into small pieces and mix it in a small bowl with the Soy sauce. Chop the tomatoes into small pieces, discarding the seeds from inside and retaining just the firm flesh. Peel and chop the carrots and chop the cabbage into small pieces.
- Place the corn oil in a large frying pan (or wok) and heat until you detect a haze. Drop in the pork and stir until it is browned (about 1 or 2 minutes). Add the carrot and cabbage and continue to fry until they are tender (about 5-6 minutes). Drain the spaghetti in a colander or large sieve (strainer) and add to the frying pan (I told you you'd need a large one!). Add the tomatoes, tomato ketchup, chili sauce, oyster sauce and sugar. Heat the whole mix for a further 4-5 minutes, stirring all the time, then serve immediately.
GRAHAM'S HOT TIP:
Add a pork or beef stock cube to the water in which you boil the spaghetti. This will enhance the flavour of both the spaghetti and the pork.
Reviews of Fried Spaghetti and Pork
| December 03 2013 This is a great recipe and it was so easy! When I am looking for a new recipe, I make sure that I have all the ingrendients handy, and I can make it quick. This was very easy and quick!! The pasta actually had a sweet tast which was a great contrast to the spicy chile, I used garlic chile sauce I also added spinach for colour. This was yummy. I'll probably add more spices next time like garlic and ginger. jayne (4 reviews) |
