Instructions
1 Combine 1 tablespoon tamari with 1 tablespoon mirin and 1 teaspoon sesame oil in a shallow, non-metallic container. Add pork, toss to coat, cover and set aside in fridge to marinate for at least 30 minutes.
2 Thread marinated meat and onion onto prepared skewers. Spray a chargrill pan with oil and place over a high heat. Chargrill skewers for 6-8 minutes, turning regularly, until golden and just cooked through.
3 Meanwhile, remove stems from choy sum and cut stems in half lengthways. Cut leaves in half. Place a large wok over a high heat and spray with oil. Add chilli and garlic and stir-fry for about 20 seconds. Add choy sum stems and snow peas and stir-fry for 2 minutes. Add choy sum leaves, bok choy and beans and stir-fry for 2 more minutes or until vegetables are bright-green and tender-crisp.
4 Combine the remaining tamari, mirin and sesame oil and drizzle over vegetables. Serve pork skewers with greens and rice.
HFG tip
