Pickle and wash Huizhou plum vegetables.

Cut into pieces of about 1 cm.

Prepare ginger, garlic, star anise and cinnamon.

The whole piece of pork belly bleeds, and is boiled until the chopsticks are inserted into it and no blood comes out when pulled out.
-
Use a knife to scrape the skin clean and pluck out any pig hair.
-
Add oil to the pan and fry the skin of the pork belly until golden brown. (It’s best to add more oil to fry the skin. To save oil, I only fried it.)

I only lightly fried it.

Cut into approximately 1.5 cm thick slices.

Dip both sides of the cut meat in the soy sauce to color.

Use the leftover oil from frying the pork skin to stir-fry the ginger, garlic, cinnamon bark until fragrant.
-
Add the pickled vegetables and stir-fry.
-
Add the leftover soy sauce from the previous coloring of the meat, then add 2 tablespoons of cooking wine, 1 tablespoon of light soy sauce and 1 tablespoon of sugar

Boil it. (Because Huizhou plum vegetables are salty, you can add salt according to your own taste, but I didn’t.)

Cook until the water dries up slightly.

Place the pickles on top of the pork belly and pour in the sauce. .
-
Put in a pot of boiling water and steam over medium-low heat for 2 hours.

Pour into a small pot and bring to a boil, then slowly pour in the starch water to thicken until the juice is slightly thick.

Turn the meat upside down on a plate and pour the sauce over it.
