Ingredients
Main Ingredients (2 servings)
- Chinese Cabbage 1/4 head (500g)
- Pork Belly Slices 150g
- Salt (to taste)
- Potato Starch (as needed)
Seasonings
- [A] Cooking Sake (Rice Wine) 2 tbsp
- [A] Water 4 tbsp
- [A] Oyster Sauce 1 tbsp
- [A] Chicken Bouillon Powder 2 tsp
- [A] Grated Garlic 1 tsp
- Sesame Oil 2 tsp
- Slurry (1 tbsp Water + 1 tsp Potato Starch)
Steps
- Separate the leaves and the tough core of 1/4 Chinese Cabbage (500g).
- Diagonally slice the tough core of the cabbage into 2cm pieces to help it cook faster. This is the key! Slicing the core diagonally makes it cook more evenly.
- Cut the cabbage leaves into 2cm pieces as well.
- Sprinkle salt (to taste) over 150g of pork belly slices and coat them with potato starch (as needed).
- Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
- Once the pan is hot, add the potato starch-coated pork and cook.
- Once the pork is cooked through and has changed color, remove it to a plate.
- Add the cut Chinese cabbage to the empty frying pan and stir-fry.
- When the edges of the cabbage core start to look slightly translucent, add 2 tbsp Cooking Sake (Rice Wine), 4 tbsp Water, 1 tbsp Oyster Sauce, 2 tsp Chicken Bouillon Powder, and 1 tsp Grated Garlic. Mix everything together.
- Once the seasonings are combined and simmering, reduce heat to medium-low. Add the reserved pork, cover, and cook for 5 minutes.
- After 5 minutes of cooking, stir in 2 tsp Sesame Oil for the finish. This is the key! Adding sesame oil at the end preserves its flavor.
- Once the sesame oil is incorporated, add the slurry (1 tbsp Water + 1 tsp Potato Starch) to thicken the sauce. This is the key! Using a starch slurry ensures the sauce coats the ingredients well for a delicious finish.
- Turn off the heat once the sauce has thickened and serve in a bowl. Completed!
