Five Spice Pork and Potatoes image

From Sunset Wok Cookbook; posting for ZWT6 (Asia). Caption for recipe states: "Russet potatoes and thin, tender pork strips soak up the fragrance and flavor of Chinese five-spice. The bottled spice blend is sold in many markets, but if you cannot find it you can easily make your own."
