  • Shisanxiang (Chinese 13-spice blend)
  • Chicken bouillon powder
  • Table salt
  • Dark soy sauce
  • Light soy sauce

Quantities

Per serving:

  • Pork belly: 300g
  • Napa cabbage: 500g
  • Potato starch noodles (dried): 50g
  • Shisanxiang: 10g
  • Chicken bouillon powder: 5g
  • Table salt: 15g
  • Dark soy sauce: 5ml
  • Light soy sauce: 5ml

Instructions

  • Boil water in a pot. Once boiling, add the dried noodles and cook for 5 minutes. Drain them together with the water into a container, cover, and let them soak for later use (Start with this step; you can proceed with the following steps while the noodles soak).
  • Slice the pork belly into 3mm thick slices and set aside.
  • Separate the tender leaves from the thick stems of the Napa cabbage. Cut both into 2-inch pieces and set aside.
  • Heat a wok or pot and add 10ml - 15ml of cooking oil. Wait about 10 seconds for the oil to heat up.
  • Add the pork belly and stir-fry until the meat changes color.
  • Add the dark soy sauce and stir-fry for 1 minute to color the meat.
  • Add the cabbage stems, table salt, and light soy sauce. Stir-fry for one minute (if the pan sticks, add 10ml of water).
  • Add enough water to cover all ingredients. Add chicken bouillon powder and Shisanxiang. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
  • Drain the noodles, cut them into shorter segments, and set aside in a bowl.
  • Add the tender cabbage leaves and stir-fry evenly. Place the noodles on top of the vegetables, cover, and cook for another 5 minutes.
  • Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, then turn off the heat and reduce the sauce.

Additional Notes

  • Potato starch noodles take a long time to cook, so it is recommended to soak them in the first step while preparing other ingredients.
  • In the final step, taste the dish. If it seems bland or undercooked, cover and cook for a few more minutes.
