From the cut, carefully cut off the films and all the excess - fat, veins and tendons. Wash the meat with cold water and dry thoroughly with a paper towel.

We put the pieces of pork in the marinade and put them in the refrigerator for 2 hours, during which time the meat will absorb the aromas of the spices.

Next, heat the olive oil in a frying pan, quickly fry the pork pieces until tender, put on a plate. Pour the remaining marinade into the pan, evaporate it for 10 minutes, mix with the meat. Then sprinkle the meat with chopped herbs. Chinese style pork base with Brussels sprouts is ready.
