Directions
In a small bowl, mix together the red pepper flakes, Szechuan pepper, cornstarch, chicken stock, sesame oil, soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sugar.
Set aside. In a large skillet or wok heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over high heat until quite hot.
Add the pork and cook quickly, tossing until brown all over, about 3 to 4 minutes.
Remove to a platter. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil, then the onion, garlic, ginger, and carrots and quickly sauté until crisp tender, another 2 to 3 minutes.
Add the seasoning mixture to the vegetables and stir until the sauce begins to boil and thicken.
Add the pork and peas to the pan and heat thoroughly, about 1 minute.
Serve over steaming rice.
Sprinkle with the parsley and chopped tomato, if desired.
