  1. Tip all the ingredients, except the spring onion greens, into a large saucepan, put the lid on and bring to a gentle simmer. Cook, without boiling, for about 8 mins, until the pork has changed colour and the greens are cooked, but still a bit crunchy. Ladle into bowls, scatter with the spring onion and serve with boiled rice or noodles on the side.

    Delicious, used only one and a half teaspoons of five spice powder and that was plenty also cooked noodles in with it, will definately make again.

    I also tried it with noodles but with 2 tsp of five spice and enjoyed it. Cooking for 8 minutes is probably the maximum time needed, the pork was a bit overcooked so I'd do it for a slightly shorter time.

    I adore this recipe. It is one of my all-time faves. I add garlic to it too, and sometimes a handful of beansprouts at the very very end. (And to be honest I add WAY more soy sauce, but I don't recommend it since my salt tolerance is insane!)

    Delicious! Added more water and soy than suggested and smidge less of the 5 spice but that was to my taste. Will definitley make it again with the addition of noodles, slurp slurp!

    Tried it, but it didn't really work for us - the smells combined weren't the nicest. It didn't taste too bad, but there are many other tasty recipes on this site to try instead.

    I made this using chicken instead of pork as that's what I had in. I also added noodles into the pot and a splash of fish sauce. Thought it was simple, filling and tasty. A good quick meal to whip up in a hurry. Next time I'll use pork as I think it goes well with five spice, and will probably add more vegetables.

    Good, simple recipe which I see as a base; I added more ingredients to suit my tastes such as lemongrass. But perfect, quick and easy in the original format too.

    Delicious! I made this last night, it made a really good noodle soup, and the mix was just as tasty on it's own too. It had a really nice combination of oriental flavours. I might try and replace the green leaves for bamboo shoots, sweetcorn, beansprouts, carrot etc. in the future though, but I will definitely make it again, and again...and again. I used it with That seven-spice instead of five-spice, because I didn't have the latter, and it worked out nicely ^ ^

    I love this dish! It's super simple and I had it with egg noodles. Can make variants of it with chicken/different vegetables. This recipe is a keeper!
