- Add the 1 pound pork or beef to the marinade, ensuring it is well coated. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes until the flavors penetrate.
Step 2: Deep Fry
- Heat a sufficient amount of oil for deep frying in a deep pot or wok to 350-375°F (175-190°C).
- Carefully remove the meat from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off.
- Deep fry the pork or beef in batches for 1-2 minutes, or until cooked through and slightly crisped. Do not overcrowd the pot.
- Remove the cooked meat with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
Step 3: Serve
- Serve immediately while hot, for example, with rice and steamed vegetables.
💡 Make-Ahead & Storage: The meat can be marinated up to 4 hours in advance in the refrigerator before deep frying.
