Spicy Stir-Fried Pork (ピリ辛豚肉炒め)

Would you like to cook a super easy and tasty dish at home? If so, spicy stir-fried pork is for you.

Pork has a tender texture. You can enjoy eating this dish with rice.

This dish looks like a Chinese dish. However, I used a Yakiniku no tare (Japanese BBQ sauce) to cook it at home easily.

This dish is very quick to make and is a good dish to make if you are busy. Also, if you like spicy food, try cooking this dish!
