The Braised Pork with Potatoes My Dad's Made 100,000 Times

Ingredients

• 1 lb pork belly
• 2 lb potato
• 3 oz red onion
• 3 oz carrot
• 3 clove garlic
• 3 stalk green onion
• 3 cup boiling water
• 3 tsp oil
• 1 tbsp ground bean sauce
• 1 tbsp oyster sauce
• 1 tbsp light soy sauce
• 2 tsp sugar
• 0.5 tsp salt
• 1 tsp sesame oil

Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare vegetables: Peel potatoes. Place the peeled potatoes in a bowl of cold water to prevent them from oxidizing and browning. Of course, if you prefer to eat the skin, you can leave the potatoes unpeeled and simply clean them thoroughly.

2. 2

   Prepare pork: Place the pork in a bowl of cold water. Scrape the surface of the skin to remove debris and hair. To scrape, drag the blade of your knife sideways along the surface, dipping into the water to rinse.

3. 3

   Stir-fry onions & potatoes: Heat a wok on high. Add oil.

4. 4

   Stir-fry pork: Add more oil and the pork. Let the pork cook undisturbed for 30-40 seconds so that the pieces can brown; then flip and brown the other side for 30-40 seconds.

5. 5

   Add seasoning & combine ingredients: Turn the heat to the lowest setting, or turn it off completely. Add ground bean sauce, oyster sauce, and light soy sauce. Briefly stir to distribute everything.

6. 6

   Braise: Add enough boiling water to almost fully cover all the ingredients; they don’t need to be swimming, but they need to braise in the boiling liquid.
