My husband Howard had a craving for southern fry chips the other day. (No Howard is not pregnant!) His suggestion gave me an idea for this dish. I love stir fries as they are always quick and easy.
It makes my life very simple when the dish isn’t complicated. I also enjoy adding flavour to dishes. After my husband’s suggestion I was planning a stir fry that week so I decided to add the southern spices to the stir fry. It made the dish so tasty that we will be eating this one again soon. We hope you will too.

Southern Spice Pork Stir Fry was a hit with my little family. They gobbled this one up without complaints. It was a quick and easy meal to prepare and cook too. I also made double for the freezer so we can eat it on another occasion. However you decide to eat this dish, as always, please enjoy. Thank you xxx
