Delicious Dish 1: Braised Pork Belly
Ingredients:
- 250g pork belly (choose a piece with moderate fat and lean meat)
- 50g dried shrimp
- Spices: onion, garlic, chili, peppercorn, sugar, good fish sauce, cooking oil
Instructions for Making Braised Pork Belly:
Step 1: Soak the dried shrimp in hot water for about 20 minutes until softened, then remove and set aside the shrimp. Keep the soaking water.
