Sliced Duck Soup

　　Sliced Duck Soup, also known as Stir-fried Pork Tenderloin Slices, involves first slicing fresh pork tenderloin vertically then horizontally into small pieces. The slices are placed in a bowl and mixed with egg white. The wok is heated, then filled with clean oil. Before the oil smokes, the prepared meat is added along with a small amount of thick starch slurry to thicken the mixture, which is then poured into the wok. The spatula is used to continuously stir the mixture while heating over high heat — this technique is called “hot wok, cold oil.” Once the pork slices gradually expand in size and slightly change color, they are removed from the wok. Excess oil is discarded, and the slices are placed in a bowl. An appropriate amount of clear broth is brought to a boil in the wok, seasoned with salt, minced ginger, and sliced scallions. The mixture is then ladled into a serving bowl, with a little sesame oil added on top, resulting in a delicious Sliced Duck Soup.
