FRIED CRISPY GARLIC PORK BELLY

This is another lovely meat dish shared generously by chefs of Yum Yum Publications. 
The fried pork slices are fragrant, tasty and aromatic from the fried garlic and chillies.  Really nice and awesome crispy fried garlic pork belly and regretted I didn't cook a bigger portion as per original recipe.  The recipe here is half the portion of the original quantity.
Recipe adapted from Yum Yum Magazine No. 82 slightly modified
Ingredients
300 gm pork belly – skin removed and cut thick slices
2 tbsp chopped garlic
1 red chilli – seeded and chopped finely
1 stalk coriander leaves - chopped
Marinade
½ tsp 5 spice powder
¼ tsp salt
1 tsp sugar
½ egg
½ tbsp cornstarch
Seasoning
½ tbsp each oyster sauce and light soy sauce
  1. Marinate pork belly with marinade and season  for at least  ½ hour.
  2. Deep fry marinated pork slices until golden brown.  Dish and drain.
  3. Leave  1 tbsp oil in pan and sauté garlic until aromatic. Add in red chillies and fried pork, seasoning and stir fry over high heat until well mixed.
  4. Sprinkle chopped coriander leaves, stir well and dish up to serve.

  3. Oooh...I would definitely love this dish! I once ate a pork dish similar to this, at a restaurant, the only difference is there are lots and lots of garlic, including the garlic skins, Fried until crispy. The dish is so garlicky fragrant and delicious!
