Step by Step guide
Step 1
In a wok, bring 6 cups of salted water to a boil, add diced pork, and cook for 5 minutes. Drain and transfer to a plate.
Step 2
Dry the wok and heat it over high heat until smoking. Pour in the oil and spread it across the surface. Add finely chopped chilies, ginger, and leek, and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Add the pork and stir-fry, stirring constantly, for 3 minutes.

Add sugar, soy sauce, tofu, and 2 tablespoons of liquid from the tofu. Cook until all ingredients are browned, about 6 minutes.

Remove the lid and turn up the heat. Cook for 15 minutes until the liquid reduces to 2 tablespoons.
