Pork Stir Fry in Turmeric and Lemongrass
This is a rather quick stir fry dish. I love the eye popping bright yellow color from turmeric, and I think the color contrast between the pork with bell pepper and chili create an appetizing dish. If you don’t like pork, you can use skinless boneless chicken breast too.
