Ingredients:

• 100g lean pork, cut into ~1/2 to 1 cm cubes

• 1 fresh sweet corn

• 1 egg, beaten

• 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped

• corn starch paste (~1 1/2 tsp cornstarch with 3 tsp water)

• 1 tsp thinly sliced spring (green) onions

• 2 tsp cooking oil

Marinades for pork

• 1/2 tsp fish sauce

• 1/8 tsp ground white pepper

• 1/4 tsp corn starch

• 1/4 tsp sesame oil

Instructions:

1. Add fish sauce, white pepper and 1 tablespoon of beaten egg to pork, mixing well. Then add cornstarch and sesame oil, mixing well again. Marinade for no less than 15 minutes.
2. Shuck the corn by removing the husk and pull off all thin silks. A damp towel shall help rub away the silk beautifully.
3. Rinse the corn under running tap water, and pat dry.
4. Cut kernels off the corn cob (this is the way I cut them, trying to preserve the kernels in better shape). I cut the top end to create a flat top where I ran the tip of a sharp knife into the kernel, and sliced them off crosswise using a sawing action (I usually do it two to three rows at a time), until all kernels were removed. Note: To grab the ear of corn firmly, wrap it with a towel, and protect your hands with gloves if necessary. While working down to the bottom, just flip the corn over and hold the core instead.
5. In a pan, bring corn kernels and a cup of water to a boil, then low heat and simmer for about 15 minutes.
6. Sauté garlic with oil in a pan or skillet over medium heat until lightly brown. Add in pork, stir-frying for about half to one minute.
7. Add corn with water (it is a stock now) into the pork, stir well and bringing to a simmer.
8. Stir in cornstarch mixture, a little at a time, into the skillet. You may adjust the consistency here by adding more water or more corn starch.
9. As soon as the sauce is thickened to your liking, turn heat to the lowest, gently lay remaining beaten egg in a thin layer over the top. A gentle action is desired as to avoid the egg sinking to the bottom too quickly and forming lumps. Then, quickly stir the beaten egg in swirls so as to create feather-like patterns.
10. Sprinkle in green onions, heat off. Dish up.
