Ingredients needed 🛒2 servings
- pork belly 200g
- Chinese noodles (or pasta) 2 servings
- onion 1/4
- vinegar 50ml
- sugar 1.5 tablespoons
- salt a pinch
- green onions as needed
- celery a pinch
- green beans a pinch
- scallions 1/2 bunch
- minced garlic 1 tablespoon
- soy sauce 1/2 tablespoon
- doubanjiang 1/2 tablespoon
- oyster sauce 1.5 tablespoons
- pepper a pinch
- starch slurry a pinch
Recipe 🍳
- Mix vinegar 50ml, sugar 10g, and a pinch of salt, then soak sliced onion in it to make a tangy pickled onion relish for serving.
- Cut green onions, celery, and green beans into bite-sized pieces. Slice pork belly thickly. Chop scallions finely.
- Heat oil generously in a pan, briefly sauté green beans, green onions, and celery until lightly browned, then remove and set aside.
- In another pan, add a small amount of oil, sauté scallions and minced garlic until fragrant, then add pork belly and cook until golden brown.
- Once the meat is cooked, pour half a tablespoon of soy sauce along the edge of the pan to enhance umami and add a smoky aroma.
- Add the previously sautéed vegetables, then stir in half a tablespoon of doubanjiang, 1.5 tablespoons of oyster sauce, 1 tablespoon of sugar, and a pinch of pepper. Mix well to evenly coat with seasoning.
- Add boiled noodles to the pan and stir-fry until the sauce is well incorporated. Lightly mix in starch slurry to thicken the sauce so it clings nicely to the noodles.
- Transfer to a bowl and serve, topping with or serving alongside the prepared pickled onion relish.
- Soak onion in a mixture of vinegar, sugar, and salt to make a tangy pickled relish.
- Briefly sauté green onions, celery, and green beans in oil before setting them aside.
- Sauté scallions and garlic, then add pork belly and cook until golden. Enhance flavor with soy sauce.
- Add the pre-sautéed vegetables, seasonings, and boiled noodles, stir-frying step by step, then finish with a touch of starch slurry.
Cooking tips 💡
- Green onions and green beans are firm and may not cook through easily—briefly sautéing them in oil beforehand improves texture and tenderness.
- Adding a small amount of starch slurry at the end helps create a glossy, clinging sauce that coats the noodles beautifully.
- The slight greasiness after the rich pork belly is perfectly balanced by the tangy pickled onion relish.
