Classic Kung Pao Fish

As an Asian, "kung pao" doesn't make much sense for me—this is more like "fish katsu" but it tastes delicious, especially the sauce.

Soy-marinated Pulled Pork

It's got a good base but it definitely needs more flavor, otherwise it's pretty bland. I added some soy sauce and garlic chili oil and it was so much better.
