Pairs well with:

Zinfandel

Bright and full-bodied, this Zinfandel wine is a curious contradiction in tastes.

¼ lb ground pork
4 tbsp soy sauce, divided
1 tbsp sesame oil
½ tbsp peanut oil
1 ½ tbsp ginger paste (or fresh minced ginger)
2 tbsp plain breadcrumbs
1 tbsp Asian seasoning
1 cup shredded cabbage (or plain coleslaw mix)
½ cup bean sprouts
¼ cup chopped water chestnuts
¼ cup chopped green onions
