My daughter does not want to eat out for dinner every day because she is a university student and rents an apartment. She once enquired about the fastest, easiest, healthiest, and tastiest way to prepare braised pork. The fewer dishes that need to be washed, the better. She needed a recipe with braised pork that could be made by simply combining all the ingredients in a pot and letting them simmer. When I give it some thought, I realize that she would enjoy this braised port belly with radish.
Because of the ginger, garlic, dried
chilli, and star anise, this meal has a lot of flavours. I like to use a lot of
ginger to flavour the pork. Due to the lengthy cooking process, the ginger that
has been simmered is excellent.
As the meat cooked slowly over low
heat. The smell of meat permeated the kitchen and was very alluring.
When the meat is done being braised!
Goodness!! It has me completely drooling. Pick up a piece of meat with a pair
of chopsticks and take a bite. Fat but not greasy. It melts in your mouth and
leaves a lingering flavour. After being cooked, the radish in particular tastes amazing. Simple to prepare
and tasty recipe that requires little effort and cleanup.
Are you drooling? This is an easy
and delicious recipe which you should have in your back pocket. One wok does
all the work. let us get all the ingredients to hand and the detailed
instruction to make a delicious, braised pork belly with radish.
WHAT IS CONR STARCH SLURRY?
You may have observed that a lot of
Chinese recipes featured cornstarch in the marinade as well as a sauce. A
typical Chinese cooking method is to add starch to the marinade before
stir-frying. The starch in the marinade holds the liquid components together
and adheres them to the meat. A sauce is always included in many Chinese
stir-fry recipes or braised meat dishes. And as an extra bonus, the cornstarch
gives the marinade and sauce a shiny sheen.
