Braised pork with cilantro

Braised pork with cilantro

Overview

Today’s dish is made with pork belly and wild rice. We are used to this color when cooking braised pork. If you don’t like the dark color, you can reduce the amount of dark soy sauce. This dish looks like a rich red sauce, but in fact it tastes salty and fresh with a hint of sweetness. The wild rice itself has a bitter taste, so if you want to eat delicious wild rice, you must find a good partner for the wild rice. Only when it is with the meat and absorbs the nourishment of the oil, will it become waxy and tender. Especially the Ci Gu, which is filled with the aroma of rich soup and meat, is glutinous, soft and sweet. It is delicious and goes well with rice. By the end of the meal, all the pork belly was rolling around in the bowl
