Pork & Scallops With Crisp Ginger Recipe
Recipe Ingredients
1 lb asparagus
1 large red pepper
2 2-3 pieces ginger
1 pork tenderloin, (about 3/4 lb)
2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
2 tbsp dry sherry
1 tbsp cornstarch
1/2 tsp sugar
1/4 cup canola oil
1/2 lb brown mushrooms
1/4 tsp salt, optional
3/4 lb bay scallops
Recipe Preparation
To remove tough ends from tender asparagus spears--the easy way, hold
base of stalk firmly and bend. End will snap and break off at just
the right spot for the best eating.
About 1 hour before serving, discard tough ends from asparagus, trim
scales, cut diagonally into 3-inch pieces. Cut pepper into strips.
Peel ginger; grate 1 teaspoon. Cut remaining ginger lengthwise into
very thin slices; cut slices into hair-thin strips. Cut pork
tenderloin into 1/8-inch-thick slices. In bowl, mix pork, soy sauce,
sherry, cornstarch, sugar, and grated ginger.
In 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat, in hot oil, cook ginger
strips about 1 minute or so until it has a light browned color.
Remove ginger with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. In oil
remaining in skillet, cook asparagus, red pepper, mushrooms, and salt
(optional) until vegetables are tender-crisp, stirring quickly and
frequently. With slotted spoon, remove vegetables to plate.
In oil remaining in skillet over high heat, cook pork mixture over
high heat a minute or so. Add scallops and cook until pork loses its
pink color and scallops are tender about 2 to 3 minutes, adding a
little more oil if it is needed. Return vegetables to skillet;
stir-fry until heated through. Spoon pork mixture onto platter;
sprinkle with ginger strips. Makes 6 servings.
Note: Meat slices more easily if it is frozen slightly (about 40
minutes). You can hold your knife on a slant and slice across the
width to get nicely uniform pieces.

Food Tips of the Week
Dieting tipsIf you wish to become slim and boost your all round health, then, as any dietician will tell you, you really should eat a thoughtfully calculated sensible daily routine. At best, this should include five measures of grains and vegetables each day and also incorporate the right mix of important nutrients.
Some reduced carbohydrate diet tips:
* Don't miss meals Most low carbohydrate recipes are, not surprisingly, low in carbohydrates. Our bodies need energy, and carbohydrates are a quick acting source of energy. A lower carbohydrate diet requires care and attention in monitoring you energy intake, as any energy contributed by protein and fat is slower acting.
* Don't forget the fiber Decreasing the carbs in your meals often results in fiber reduction as well. Check for reduced carbohydrate recipes that are rich in fiber to redress this.
The brassica family, Wonder foods that help with Your diet
(eg. Cauliflower, Boiled potatoes, Mizuna and Radishes)
Members of the brassica family are packed with vitamins (eg.folate and vit c), minerals (selenium and potassium, for example), isothiocyanates, antioxidents and indole-3-carbinol.
In addition to their numerous healthy effects, a few of these nutrients are thought to help reduce the cancer risk.
