2
Phase 2

Mix the toasted salt and all the other spice mix ingredients together.

Phase 3

Coat the pork evenly with the spice mix, then refrigerate for an hour or so to allow to marinate. You can do this in advance.

4
Phase 4

Spray a frying pan with low calorie cooking spray and place over a medium to high heat.

5
Phase 5

When the pan is hot, add the pork, onion, peppers and garlic and fry until the pork is almost cooked through.

6
Phase 6

Add the soy sauce and rice vinegar and let it simmer for a couple of minutes, stirring to make sure everything is coated.
