- Pour the oils into a wok or a large skillet. Make sure to spread the oil to cover the surface of the pan. Heat to medium-high temperature. Add the pork slices and cook thoroughly and slightly browned.

Once the liquid is heated through and the sugar is dissolved, pour the liquid over the onions and let sit for at least 15 minutes. Drain before serving.
- Assemble bowls using the lettuce and/or rice as the base. Add the pork and any preferred toppings. Enjoy!
