Cooking Steps

Marinate the pork
1
  • Crush or mince the garlic. Deseed and finely chop the red chili pepper.
  • Take the pork out of its packaging and transfer its marinade to a bowl. Add the garlic, ginger paste, chili pepper* and ketjap. 
  • Dice the pork into 1cm chunks, then transfer to the bowl and mix well to combine.
  • Set aside to marinate for at least 10 minutes.

*Take care, this ingredient is spicy! Use as preferred.

Prepare the cucumber
2
  • Preheat the oven to 200°C (see Tip).
  • In a salad bowl, combine the white wine vinegar with the sugar. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Cut the cucumber into batons and transfer to the salad bowl.
  • Toss well to combine, then set aside, stirring occasionally.

Tip: you'll use the oven later for the pitas, but you can also use a toaster instead. In this case, no need to preheat the oven.

Fry the pork
3
  • Slice the onion into thin half rings and cut the Romano pepper into thin strips.
  • Heat the sunflower oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Fry the pork in its marinade with the onion and Romano pepper for 10 minutes.
  • Lower the heat and add the East Asian-style sauce and the water (see pantry for amount).
  • Allow to reduce gently for 5 minutes.
Serve
4
  • Bake the pitas in the oven for 6 - 8 minutes, or use a toaster instead.
  • Cut open the pitas and fill them with the pork and fried vegetables.
  • Serve the pitas with the cucumber alongside.
