Method:
  1. In a small bowl, combine broth, soy sauce, and cornstarch. Mix well. Set aside. Heat a wok or large nonstick skillet over high heat.
  2. Add oil to wok; heat until hot but not smoking. Add pork to wok; cook, stirring constantly, until no longer pink, for about 5 minutes. Transfer pork to a paper towel-lined plate.
  3. Add onion and garlic to wok; cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes. Add broccoli and bell pepper; cook, stirring constantly, until crisp-tender, for about 2 minutes.
  4. Add pork to wok. Give the broth mixture a good stir and add to wok. Cook, stirring, until pork is heated through and sauce thickens, for about 5 minutes. Stir in cashews.
  5. Place rice on individual serving plates. Spoon pork mixture over rice. Serve immediately.
  6. Tip: Cashew nuts have a sweet, buttery flavor and are relatively high in fat (about 48 percent). Because of their high fat content, it's important to store cashews in a tightly sealed plastic bag or container in the refrigerator to prevent rancidity.
