Chinese Plum Pork with Steamed Greens and Rice
Make the most of your leftover roast pork and the beautiful abundance of delicious Christmas stone fruit (for the Aussies!) with this simple (yet surprisingly impressive!) main meal you can make from scratch. The plum sauce has a zingy sweetness, and has been shared with us by Bee from Tick of Yum. It makes a great addition to the steamed rice and veggies. You can easily double this recipe if you have more pork, just remember to increase the cooking times for the sauce by 20%, while adding more rice (up to 400g) and vegetables. For a quick meal, you can simultaneously use other cooking methods for the rice and vegetables.
