  • 1 cup (250 mL) cubed onion

  • 1 cup (250 mL) cubed carrot

  • 1 cup (250 mL) baby bok choy, quartered

    honey, cornstarch and sesame oil.  Bring to a boil for 1 minute, or until slightly thickened.

  4.

Tent with foil and let rest 3-5 minutes to a Health Canada-recommended final internal temperature of 160°F (71°C) before serving.

Tip: Use a meat thermometer when cooking pork to ensure a juicy tender product.
