Step 1

Precook spaghetti and drain. Set aside in a covered Tupperware.

Add one tablespoon of vegetable oil to a large fry pan. Fry up the pork cubes until browned. This will take 10-15 minutes. Remove the pork and juices from pan and set aside.
Step 3

Add one tablespoon of vegetable oil to hot pan. Add the celery, onions and red pepper flakes to the pan. Saute for about 10 minutes until the mushrooms and softened.
Step 4

Stir in the chicken broth, bamboo shoots, bean sprouts (or baby corn if you used that instead), and water chestnuts to the pan, and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 10 minutes.
Step 5

Stir the soy sauce and the previously browned pork to the pan. Add a lid to the pan and simmer for another 10 minutes.
Step 6

Mix the water and cornstarch together in a small bowl until smooth. Slowly add this mixture to the cooking pan and stir until the sauce begins to thicken.
Step 7

Slowly stir in small amounts of artificial sweetener or sugar to the thickened sauce until it has a slightly sweet taste.
Step 8

Add the pre-cooked spaghetti noodles to the pan and stir well.
