Fried Crispy Garlic Pork Belly

Quite similar to Fried Nam Yee Pork but with a slight adjustment to the marinade. But it tasted much better than the nam yee pork.  Here garlic is added to marinate the meat.
Ingredients
[recipe adapted from Yum Yum magazine 85]
800 gm pork belly  [4 inches in length and about 1/2 inch thick slices]
1/2 tbsp grated garlic
1 piece taucheo [fermented beancurd]
1/2 tsp 5 spice powder [good quality type]
1 tsp salt
1 tbsp sugar
1 tbsp each of sesame oil and wine
3 tbsp cornflour
some oil enough to pan fry meat slices
  1. Marinate meat slices with all the ingredients except oil for at least an hour.
  2. Heat enough oil in a non stick pan.  Place marinated meat slices to fry until crispy on one side.
  3. Flip over to fry the other side until golden brown and crispy at the sides.
  4. Dish out.  Cool slightly and cut thin slices before serving.

Hi Kimmy, wow... your crispy pork belly look so inviting and addictive. Excellent, got chilli sauce? :))

Have a nice day.

Kimmy, I will definitely try this. I remember I bought some nam yee but don't know where I put. Hope I can find it :)

Hi Cheah, very easy and not much oil needing to pan fry them till crispy.

Kimmy said...

Hi Amelia, so far those who tried asked for more. It's good enough without any dipping sauce.

Hi Phong Hong, the mum's nam yee pork belly recipe is without garlic. This one has added flavour. Worth trying.

Hi Kimmy! I had nam yee pork the first time during CNY, though without the garlic. It was so good!! I can't wait to try making this at home!

Kimmy said...

Hi Joyce, how I wish I can just press the bell and I get to eat it, hehehe!

Kimmy said...

Hi Esther, whenever it comes to this kind of dish, the young chaps in the house had the most of it. I feel so happy seeing them enjoying every bit of it.

Kimmy said...

Hi Jasline, try with garlic, you may like this better.
