Today’s oil-free and healthy version of braised pork with dried bamboo shoots is one of my favorite combinations. There is absolutely no need to add extra fat in this dish. After the three processes of blanching, stewing and steaming the pork belly, the fat in it has almost completely separated. At the same time, after absorbing the fat of the pork belly, the dried bamboo shoots add an oily aroma in addition to their own sweetness, which is a perfect combination. In terms of taste, the steamed pork belly is so soft that it melts in your mouth and requires no chewing at all. The dried bamboo shoots are fresh and crisp, filling your mouth with saliva. No matter from a health perspective, or from a taste and texture point of view, it’s a perfect match! This braised pork with dried bamboo shoots can be presented in various ways. It can be made into a directly mixed form, or it can be made into a meat-stuffed form. No matter which one, it will not affect its deliciousness at all. Today, I wrapped the simmered bamboo shoots with thinly sliced pork belly, and used coriander stems as leads to make it look like firecrackers. In order to avoid monotony, some copper coins were carved from carrots, boiled and placed around the firecrackers. Finally, garnish with cilantro and diced carrots to simulate the crumbs of firecrackers. So, let’s name it: Firecrackers to welcome the Spring Festival! Seeing that the New Year is just around the corner, I wish you all a happy New Year in advance with this dish~~
