Roast Pork with Bamboo Shoots! Sweet But Not Greasy and Crisp But Not Rotten!
1.
Cut the pork belly into small pieces. I blanched the bamboo shoots after cutting them with a hob the day before. The bamboo shoots must be blanched to remove the oxalic acid and bitterness. Just boil for a few minutes.
2.
Remove the fishy scallion and ginger cooking wine and cook until the color changes.
3.
Remove the scum, rinse well, control the moisture and set aside
4.
Start cooking oil, stir-fry bamboo shoots
5.
Stir fry until the bamboo shoots are slightly charred, just like the picture
6.
Start another pot, add a little water and some sugar, and start to fry the sugar color (you can omit it if you don’t, but it’s not necessary)
7.
It is enough to make the caramel color like this. Pour in the pork belly and stir fry a few times, then add a little water to the pork belly
8.
Pour in the fresh soy extract, color the dark soy, a pinch of salt, a small piece of cinnamon, 1-2 star anise, 1-2 bay leaves. The ginger I used directly was blanched before, but ginger and spring onion sections can be added for the special ones. Cover and simmer for 30-40 minutes.
9.
I added the bamboo shoots for about half an hour, stir fry for color, add some water, cover and simmer for about ten minutes.

It took more than 40 minutes before and after. At this time, the texture of the meat was rotten but not loose. In my boyfriend's words, QQ is not good at all. I think it's just right at this time. Of course, the specific meat situation depends on the size of the pot and the size of the meat pieces. Generally, you can use chopsticks to clamp the fat part with a little force, and it takes a little force to poke, so it should be almost the same.

This perfect piece of meat! Three fats and three thin are great 🥳

Sprinkle with chopped green onion and serve!
Tips:
1. If you don't know how to fry in sugar, you don't need to fry, just boil it in water, add light soy sauce and sugar, braised pork with sugar is delicious! If you don’t like sweetness, you can just add a little bit of freshness;
2. Bamboo shoots must be blanched! Oxalic acid is slightly toxic! It’s best to stir fry to collect the moisture, otherwise it will be easy to rot and disperse
3. When stewing pork, always check whether the pot is dry or not, add it if the boiling water is less, just add it until the pork has just passed.
4. There is nothing else to pay attention to. If you like chewy, cook shorter, if you like rotten ones, cook a little longer, it doesn’t matter.
