Gingered Pork Sandwich With Pineapple Slaw

• Gingered Pork Sandwiches
• 1 pound pork tenderloin, sliced or cubed
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 1/4 cup water
• 1/4 cup ginger, chopped
• 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• juice of one lime
• 4 Hawaian buns or crusty French rolls
• hoisin sauce (optional)
• Pineapple Slaw
• 1 cup fresh pineapple, diced
• 2 tablespoons cilantro, chopped
• 1 small cucumber, diced
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1/2 red bell pepper, diced
• 1 jalapeno, seeds removed, finely chopped
• juice of one lime
• salt

1. Mix together soy sauce, water, ginger, sugar, and lime juice. Combine with pork in a plastic bag, turning so that meat is covered with marinade. Marinate at least 30 minutes.
2. For soft, tender meat, empty meat and marinade into a pan, bring to a boil, then cover and simmer 15 minutes or until meat is cooked through.
3. For meat with a crispier texture, drain meat and reseve marinade. Pan-fry or sautee meat in oil until cooked through and splash on a little marinade to moisten at the end.
4. Place pork onto bun and top with pineapple slaw for a sandwich. If more sweetness is desired, smear a little hoisin sauce on the bun.
5. Combine all ingredients and toss together. Use salt sparingly.
