【Hubei】Local Pork and Sweet Potato

Overview

In fact, this dish is very simple to make. As long as you can make braised pork, you will be familiar with this dish. However, I would like to remind everyone that in order to prevent the sweet potatoes from shattering during cooking, fry the sweet potatoes first (fried instead of deep-fried to reduce oil) to shape them, which will also help them absorb the flavor of the gravy. The aroma of sweet potatoes and meat complement each other, they are fat but not greasy, crisp but not broken, sweet but not sticky, thick but not salty. Served with a bowl of rice, it is soft and glutinous but not greasy. The sweet potato chunks that are full of flavor are the essence of this dish.
