I cooked this tonight and found it extremely bland. The ginger was the only flavor to come through. If it were not for that there would have been almost no taste at all.
I added some additional red pepper flakes to kick up the heat a little and added quite a bit of soy sauce at the table.
The instruction to add the soy sauce mix to the pork as described has to be a mistake. If you use a very hot wok, as you should with a stir fry, and add the soy/corn starch mix in this manner the heat of the wok immediately drives off the liquid and leaves a thick gummy paste on the pan or on a small amount of the pork. I immediately added an additional 1/4 to 1/3 cup of water and stired rapidly to re blend the gummy paste back to a liquid.
