Stewed Pork Belly with Pickled Cabbage

Wash pickled cabbage leaves one by one and rinse with water several times until the water is clear. Squeeze out the water and cut the pickled cabbage into small or large pieces as desired. Wash the pork belly until clean.

Boil the pork belly with water for about 10 minutes until the skin is tight. Turn off the stove and drain the water.

Put a pan on the stove and add enough oil to cover the pork belly. When the oil is hot, add the boiled pork belly and fry until it is a nice yellow color and the skin is tight. This will prevent the pork from falling apart when stewed and will make it more fragrant and delicious. Drain the oil.

Put a pot or pan on the stove and add a little oil. Add the garlic, pepper, and coriander root and stir-fry until fragrant. Add the pickled cabbage, season with palm sugar, light soy sauce, seasoning sauce, and dark soy sauce, and stir-fry until well blended.

Add the fried pork belly, add enough water to cover the pork belly, cover with a lid, and simmer over medium-low heat for about 1-2 hours or until the pork is tender as desired. During this time, open the lid and flip the pork over to ensure that it is cooked evenly. Alternatively, use a pressure cooker for only 30 minutes. When the time is up, turn off the stove and serve.
