Christian Gott - An Island Chef
You can garnish the dish with deep-fried chilli as well as garlic if you like a kick. I like to add some finely sliced spring onions.

Equipment

  • 1 Deep-sided, heavy-bottomed frying pan

Instructions
 

  • Whisk the egg white with fifty millilitres of the oil, the Shaoxing wine or sherry, 1 tablespoon of cornflour, and the garlic salt. Mix with the pork until it is evenly coated. Cover and marinate for a couple of hours in the fridge.
  • Mix the salt and peppers in a small bowl and set aside.
  • Heat the remaining oil in a deep-sided, heavy-bottomed frying pan over a medium heat until hot. Add the sliced garlic and fry, stirring constantly until it turns pale golden brown.
  • Lift out the garlic with a slotted spoon and transfer to a plate lined with paper towels.
  • Toss the pork in the remaining corn flour, shake off the excess and fry in batches for two to three minutes until light brown and crispy.
  • Drain off excess oil as you remove the pork and place it on a tray then keep warm in an oven on a low heat.
  • When all of the pork is cooked sprinkle with half of the salt and pepper mix. Toss and taste a piece. Adjust seasoning if required adding more salt and pepper mix.
  • Pile the cooked Salt and Pepper Pork Chops onto freshly cooked rice, add warm Hoisin sauce and garnish with the fried garlic and spring onions.
