Ingredients
Main Ingredients (2 servings)
- Pork belly slices 220g
- Napa cabbage 300g
- Chicken thighs 300g
- Onion 1/2 (100g)
- Green pepper 3 (100g)
- Potato starch 2 tsp (for Nihou Sai)
- Cooking Sake (Rice Wine) 1 tbsp (for Nihou Sai)
- Vegetable oil 1 tbsp (for Nihou Sai)
- Potato starch 2 tbsp (for Sweet and Sour Chicken)
- Vegetable oil 2 tbsp (for Sweet and Sour Chicken)
Seasonings
- [A] Cook Do Happosai 1 box
- [A] Salt and pepper (to taste)
- [B] Cook Do Chuka Don 1 box
- [B] Salt and pepper (to taste)
- Chili oil (to taste)
Steps
- Tear or cut the pork belly slices (220g) into bite-sized pieces.
- Marinate the pork belly slices with salt and pepper (to taste), potato starch (2 tsp), and cooking sake (rice wine) (1 tbsp). Coat thoroughly. **(This is the key!)** Coating with potato starch and sake will tenderize the pork.
- Cut off the core of the Napa cabbage (300g) and rinse off any dirt.
- Slice the Napa cabbage thinly.
- Heat 1 tbsp of vegetable oil in a frying pan and stir-fry the pork belly slices.
- Once the pork is about 80-90% cooked, remove it to a plate. **(This is the key!)** Removing the meat prevents it from becoming tough.
- Add oil to the same frying pan (or use the remaining oil if any). Add the Napa cabbage and stir-fry.
- Once the Napa cabbage has softened, return the pork to the frying pan.
- Turn off the heat, add Cook Do Happosai (1 box), turn the heat back on, and stir-fry everything together.
- Nihou Sai made with Cook Do Happosai is ready.
- Cut the onion (1/2, 100g) into wedges and separate the layers.
- Cut the green peppers (3, 100g) in half, without removing the seeds. **(This is the key!)** The seeds in green peppers contain nutrients and their texture is not noticeable in sweet and sour dishes.
- Cut the chicken thighs (300g) into bite-sized pieces.
- Marinate the chicken thighs with potato starch (2 tbsp) and salt and pepper (to taste). Coat thoroughly.
- Heat 2 tbsp of vegetable oil in a frying pan.
- Place the chicken pieces in the frying pan with the skin-side down and pan-fry. **(This is the key!)** Pan-frying the chicken with minimal oil results in a crispy texture and helps the sauce adhere better.
- Once the chicken pieces are evenly crispy, set them aside on a plate.
- Leave about 1 tbsp of oil in the frying pan and stir-fry the onions.
- Once the onions have softened, add the green peppers and stir-fry.
- Return the stir-fried chicken to the frying pan with the vegetables.
- Add Cook Do Chuka Don (1 box) and stir-fry everything together.
- Sweet and Sour Chicken-style dish made with Cook Do Chuka Don is ready. **(This is the key!)** By pan-frying without using eggs, you can create a quick and refreshing sweet and sour chicken.
