Refried Leftover Pulled Pork and Oyster Sauce Sandwich

Refried pulled pork and oyster sauce is added to a bread roll, garnished with some coriander and served with pork scratchings

The basis of your lunch on any given day can very often be determined by leftovers from the previous night's dinner. This is sensible, preventing waste and saving money. Ideally, however, you want to find easy ways of altering the leftovers slightly so that you are not simply eating a smaller version of the meal you enjoyed the previous evening. This can often be done very effectively by using seasonings and other sundry ingredients you have available in your fridge, store cupboards or larder.

This creation is extremely basic, extremely quick to prepare - and absolutely delicious. If you don't fancy the idea of oyster sauce with pork, you could easily use hoisin sauce, soy sauce, or any other sauce you have available.

Ingredients per Person

4oz leftover pulled pork
1 tbsp oil for frying
1 tbsp oyster sauce (or sauce of choice)
1 soft bread roll or burger bun
Packet of pork scratchings or crisps/potato chips of choice
Coriander/cilantro to season


Pulled pork is added to some hot oil in a frying pan

Directions

Put the oil in to a small, non-stick frying pan and bring it up to a medium heat. Add the pork and the sauce and stir fry for a couple of minutes on a high heat until the pork is fully heated and has a slightly crispy coating.

Cut your roll or bun in half and lay the two halves on a plate with the pork scratchings.

Carefully spoon the pork on to the bottom half of the bread roll.
