Directions

1. To prepare teriyaki sauce, in a medium-size bowl, mix orange juice, minced mint, soy sauce, ginger, and garlic; set aside.
2. Slice pork across the grain into 1/8-inch-thick (3-mm-thick) strips about 2 inches (5 cm) long. Add pork to teriyaki sauce in bowl; cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes or until next day. Mix apples with lemon juice; set aside.
3. Heat oil in a wok or wide frying pan over high heat. Add onion; cook, stirring, until soft (about 2 minutes). Add apples; cook, stirring, until hot (about 1 minute). Spoon mixture into a bowl and set aside.
4. With a slotted spoon, transfer pork to pan; reserve teriyaki sauce in bowl. Cook, stirring, until meat is lightly browned (about 2 minutes). Return apple mixture to pan, then add any remaining teriyaki sauce and bring to a boil, stirring.
5. Mound rice on a platter. Pour pork mixture over rice; garnish with orange slices and, if desired, mint sprigs.
