Stir-Fried and Simmered Pork Belly and Bamboo Shoot
- 150 grams Pork belly block
- 100 grams Bamboo shoot cooked in water (canned or vacuum packed)
- 5 to 6 Green beans (frozen ok)
- 1 piece's worth Thinly sliced ginger
- 300 ml Water
- 1 tsp Chinese soup stock
- 1 to 2 tablespoons Shaoxing wine (or sake)
- 1 tbsp Sugar
- 1 tbsp Soy sauce
- 1 tsp Sesame oil
- Cut the pork belly into 7 to 8 mm thick pieces.
- Cut the bamboo shoot into half and then into thin slices.
- Slice the ginger thinly.
- Cut the green beans into 5 cm long pieces.
- Put the pork into a frying pan and stir fry until crispy.
- There is no need to add any oil since plenty of fat will come out of the pork.
- Wipe out any excess oil from the pan with paper towels.
- Add the ginger and bamboo shoots and stir fry quickly.
- Put in all the ingredients and simmer for about 20 minutes.
- Add the green beans near the end and simmer briefly.
- When they are cooked, drizzle in the sesame oil and it's done.
- This is the shaoxing wine I used.
