Peel the cucumber in portions (optional), cut in half lengthwise and scrape off the seeds.
Cut the cucumber into half-inch slices, place in a bowl and sprinkle in the salt. Toss thoroughly. Cover the bowl and leave the cucumber slices to soak for 30 minutes.
Place the ground pork in a bowl.
Take one chili, finely chop and add to the pork.
Finely slice the other chili and set aside.
Peel and mince the garlic. Add to the pork.
Peel and grate the ginger. Add to the pork.
Peel the shallot and cut into two. Finely chop one portion and add to the pork. Thinly slice the remaining half and set aside.
To the pork and spices in the bowl, add one teaspoon soy sauce, fish sauce, rice wine and sesame seed oil. Mix well. Cover the bowl and marinate in the fridge for 15 minutes.
When the soaking time for the cucumber slices is up, strain then squeeze out as much liquid as you can without breaking the cucumber slices.
In a small bowl, stir together the bone broth, the remaining soy sauce and starch.
Heat the cooking oil in a wok (this is stir frying so keep the heat on high at all times). Swirl the wok to coat as much surface as possible.
Spread the marinated ground pork on the hot oil. Do not disturb for about half a minute. Then, stir to break up lumps. Stir fry the pork until lightly browned.
Add the reserved shallot to the pork. Continue stir frying until the shallot slices are limp.
Add the cucumber slices to the pork and stir fry for half a minute.
Stir the broth-starch solution again to make sure that the starch has not settled in the bottom of the bowl. Pour into the wok, stirring to incorporate. Continue cooking until the sauce is thick and clear.
Transfer the cucumber and ground pork stir fry to a serving platter. Garnish with the reserved chili. Serve at once. Best with rice.
