Instructions

Cut pork into thin strips. Combine all marinade ingredients (cornstarch last) in a bowl, then marinate the pork for 10-15 minutes.
Whisk all sauce ingredients in a separate bowl and set aside.
Prepare all vegetables: Thinly slice bamboo shoots, mushrooms, and water chestnuts. Halve, deseed, and diagonally slice the bell pepper. Separate bok choy stalks, cutting them diagonally and leaves across. Diagonally cut celery. Halve, peel, and thinly slice the onion. Keep prepared vegetables separate on a tray.
Heat a wok or skillet with 1 tablespoon oil until shimmering. Stir-fry pork until no longer red; remove and set aside.
Reheat wok with remaining oil. Stir-fry onion, celery, and bell pepper for 2-3 minutes.
Add mushrooms, bok choy stalks, and snow peas (if using); stir-fry for 2-3 minutes.
Incorporate bamboo shoots, water chestnuts, and bok choy leaves; stir-fry for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Create a well in the center of the vegetables, gradually add the sauce, and stir to thicken.
Once the sauce boils, return the pork to the wok and mix all ingredients thoroughly.
