This spiced pork tenderloin is a component of Singapore Noodles, but the leftovers can be eaten on their own with steamed bok choy and rice, or added to fried rice, sandwiches, soups, stir-fries, scrambled eggs or omelets. You'll need to marinate the pork at least 6 hours, or better yet, overnight.
