Stir Fried Pumpkin With Pork

This simple recipe is one of my Thai husband's most popular dishes with our dinner guests.

Ingredients

• 1 small to medium sized pumpkin
• 3 Tblsp. vegetable oil (not olive oil)
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1/3 lb of pork roast
• 1/3 cup oyster sauce (Mae Krua brand)
• 2 Tblsp sugar

Preparation

1. Cut the pumpkin in half and remove the seeds. Cut each half into smaller pieces about the size of your hand, so that they are more manageable. Peel the pieces (not necessary to be completely peeled) and cut into small pieces about 1 1/2" x 1/2" x 1/4". Cut up enough pumpkin so that you have about 5 cups sliced.
2. Heat oil in a wok over medium high heat. Smash the garlic with a side of a cleaver/knife. Toss in the wok. Immediately add the sliced pumpkin. Stir to combine.
3. Add the pork and stir again.
4. Add the oyster sauce, sugar. Reduce the heat to medium and cook until the pumpkin is cooked through but still 'al dente' (somewhat firm in the middle), approximately 10 minutes.

Taste and adjust seasoning if needed (add a tiny bit of sugar if it is too salty, or more oyster sauce if it is too sweet).
