Marinate the pork for 15 minutes. Heat a wok and add 1/2 tablespoon (1 1/2 teaspoon) of the peanut oil. Chow the pork until done to your taste and then add the remaining cooked meats. Chow all for a few minutes and remove to a large serving bowl. Heat the wok again and add another 1/2 tablespoon of peanut oil.

Remove to a serving bowl. Add the last tablespoon of the peanut oil and chow the garlic.

Return the ingredients in the serving bowl to the wok and chow until very hot. Stir in the bean sprouts, test for salt, and serve. from The Frugal Gourmet Cooks The Three Ancient Cuisines - China, Greece, and Rome; by Jeff Smith, 1989 NOTE: This is a Chesser family favorite. I usually use canned shrimp, leftover cooked beef (usually roast), chicken leftovers. This is a great dish for "cleaning the 'fridge".
