Hot! Hot! Hot! That is exactly how your wok should be before the food goes in so that you get the crispy, browned edges you want. Get the thinnest slices of meat by using a serrated knife to cut it or by freezing it for 30 minutes.

Step 1

1. Heat a large wok over high until very hot. Toss pork with sesame oil, salt, and pepper. Add pork to pan; let stand 2 minutes, without stirring, so that pork gets crispy and browned. Stir-fry pork for 2 minutes or until well browned on all sides. Let stand 1 minute without stirring. Spoon pork into a bowl, and set aside.

Step 2

2. Reheat pan over high until very hot. Add canola oil; swirl to coat. Add bok choy; stir-fry 2 minutes. Add green beans, ginger, garlic, and bell pepper; stir-fry 3 minutes or until tender-crisp. Whisk together vinegar, soy sauce, and brown sugar until sugar dissolves. Remove pan from heat; stir in vinegar mixture, tossing to coat. Stir in pork. Sprinkle evenly with scallions. Serve over brown rice.
