Ingredients
Steps
-
A piece of pork belly, scrape off the skin, hair and dirt, wash and set aside. The meat I bought at the fruit and vegetable store at the door last night is really fat, ugh
-
Sit in a pot and boil water. When the water boils, add peppercorns, star anise, cinnamon, cooking wine, add pork belly, turn to low heat and simmer for ten minutes
-
The time while cooking the meat can be used to prepare the side dishes. Peel and shred the ginger, peel and mince the garlic, and set aside. I forgot to take a photo of this step, so I used a previous photo. Sorry
-
Peel and slice potatoes, set aside
-
Select garlic sprouts, wash them, separate the leaves and sheaths, and cut into sections for later use
-
Cook the pork belly for about ten minutes. Try it. If you can poke the chopsticks into the meat, you can take it out
-
Cut the pork belly into thin slices one to two millimeters thick and set aside
-
Heat the pan, add pork belly and stir-fry until the meat slowly curls into a lamp shape, take it out and set aside. Pork belly can be stir-fried to produce a lot of oil, which can prevent the meat from being too greasy.
-
There is too much oil in the pork belly in the pot. Pour some out. Warm the oil, add garlic and ginger, and stir-fry
-
Add a tablespoon of bean paste and stir-fry until the red oil comes out
-
Add potato slices and stir-fry
-
Add pork belly slices and stir-fry
-
Pour in a little light soy sauce. The bean paste is already very salty and the light soy sauce will make it fresh. Just add a little
-
Add a spoonful of sugar and stir-fry evenly
-
Add the sheath part of the garlic sprouts and stir-fry for a minute or two
-
Add garlic leaves before serving, stir-fry over high heat and serve
-
Before it was put into the bowl, I couldn't help but put a piece of meat into my mouth. The pork belly was fragrant, the watercress was salty, a little spicy, a little sweet, it was really an incomparable taste
-
In the finished product, usually twice-cooked pork only contains garlic sprouts. This time I added potato slices, which gives it a richer texture, and the potatoes are simply more delicious than the meat. It goes very well with rice and can be called a divine dish, haha
