ORIENTAL PORK AND WALNUT NUGGETS
Makes about 40-50 servings.
1 whole pork tenderloin, about 1 pound 1 tablespoons grated fresh ginger root 1/3 cup soy sauce 2 tablespoons dry sherry 1/4 teaspoon sugar 1 garlic clove, minced Walnut halves, as needed
Cooking Directions Slice pork across the grain, as thinly as possible. This is easy to do if pork is partially frozen. Slices should be about 1/16-inch thick. In medium bowl, stir together ginger, soy sauce, sherry, sugar and garlic; add pork and marinate 30 minutes. Remove pork slices to flat surface. Place a walnut half on each; roll up. Put pork nuggets seam side down on broiler pan; broil 4 inches from heat about 4 minutes on one side only.
Serving Suggestions Thinly sliced pork is marinated briefly and rolled around a walnut half and quickly broiled. These will disappear quickly from your hors d'oeuvres table.
