The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

- #46499

30-60 minutes
ingredients
2 tablespoons light soy sauce
2 teaspoons shaoxing rice wine or dry sherry
1 1/2 teaspoon cornstarch
10 ounces lean pork, sliced across grain into fine 1 1/2" long julienne
1/4 cup groundnut or peanut oil
5 ounces bamboo shoots, sliced to match the pork
1 tablespoon light soy sauce
1 teaspoon sugar
4 scallions (spring onions), mainly white part, cut 1" lengths
directions
Mix the marinade ingredients together and marinate the pork for 15 minutes.
Pour the groundnut oil into a preheated wok and heat until the oil begins to smoke. Stir-fry the pork slices until the color changes, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove to a plate.
Add the bamboo shoots, and toss quickly around the hot wok for 10 to 15 seconds. Add the soy sauce and sugar. Lower the heat and simmer for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Raise the heat to high. Return the pork and toss together quickly.
Sprinkle in the scallions, and stir-fry for 1 minute to combine all of the ingredients. Serve immediately.
