Bami Goreng with Pork Neck Steak

I am combining two different dishes. Indonesian vegetarian Bami Goreng with Hong Kong Street Food.



Our large supermarket is finally getting its interior done. Step inside every two weeks, the whole market is upside down. A mayor overhaul is still underway. What was in tge right corner will be in the left corner now. No way to make it easy for customers to find ingredients.

But on my way to buy some milk I went through the "International Isle" and saw the spice blends for Bami and Nasi Goreng. The Indonesian noodles just stacked below it. My last cooking attempt of that dish was a spice blend I bought in the Netherlands. This is a little different tastewise.



Usually Nasi Goreng is made with either chicken or seafood. I wanted pork. The butcher had pork neck steaks on sale. I decided to add this to the Bami Goreng, but prepated in my new favourite way- Hong Kong style.



Recipe for 2:

280 g pork neck steak, oil

marinate:

1 tsp potato starch, 2 tbsp Sake, 4 tbsp light soy sauce, 1 tsp sugar, 1 tsp toasted sesame oil, 1 tsp curry powder, Salt and pepper

200 g Bami Goreng Noodles, 1 Bami Goreng spice sauce package

Vegetables:

1 carrot, 2 spring onions, 1 white of leek, 1 red bell pepper, 2 green long peppers, 3 garlic cloves, 1 Habanero orange chili  60 g mixed sprouts

Sweet Indonesian soy sauce or Ketsup Manis

Rapeseed oil

Use the backside of a Chinese cleaver and hit hard on the pork neck steak in short intervals. Do this on both sides. The meat gets flatter, larger and less sturdy. Season with salt and pepper and marinate for 30 min at least.



Cook the noodles for 3 min, set aside.

In a hot pan in a bit of oil, sear the steak. 5 min on each side and let it rest on low in the pan.

Chop the veggies and start the carrots first in the wok in some oil. Add garlic and chili. Then the other chopped veggies. Pour in the sauce package and cook it through.

Add sweet soy sauce and the noodles. Stir well. Now cut the pork steak in bite size pieces snd add it with the juice to the pan. Mix well again and serve..
