回鍋肉



How many ways can you cook pork belly? When you need to serve it fast and dun wanna spend hours braising or roasting it.....i think this would do just fine.

ingredients:
  • 300-400g pork belly
  • cooking oil
  • diced garlic
  • 1 x cubed green pepper
  • 1 chopped red chilli (optional)
  • 3 tbsp of sweet dark soy sauce
  • 4 tbsp of cooking wine
  • sugar to taste
  • salt to taste
  • 2-3 tbsp spicy black bean sauce

recipe:
  • slice pork belly to 1 finger thickness
  • scald sliced pork belly pieces with boiling water
  • heat up oil and brown garlic, then add pork to wok
  • fry till pork is about 80% cooked, set aside (i just moved it to the side of wok)
  • add 2 tbsp of wine, black bean paste, dark soy sauce, sugar, salt to wok and fry with remaining oil n garlic in wok to form a thick gravy (keep at mid heat)
  • then stir in the pepper and pork until all pieces are cooked and coated with gravy (that's why it' called 回鍋肉)
  • add in remaining 2 tbsp of wine and chilli, quickly stir fry to evaporate the alcohol off the last dash of wine (add salt/sugar if required) and serve
the taste shld be sweet & salty. goes well with plain rice and shld make a nice n quick lunch. :)#
