Ingredients

  • 300 g skinless pork belly, cut into 1 cm x 3 cm chunks
  • 150 g large green chillies
  • 100 g large red chillies
  • 2 tbsp (40 ml) vegetable oil
  • 4 garlic cloves, bruised
  • 1 tbsp black beans
  • 1 tsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp Shaoxing wine
  • A pinch sugar
For the meat marinade
  • 1 tsp potato starch
  • 1 tsp dark soy sauce
  • 1 tsp Shaoxing wine
  • A pinch salt
  • 1 tsp vegetable oil
Marinating time: 5-10 minutes

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the pork belly with the marinade ingredients. Cut the chillies into irregular shaped chunks, around 3 cm in length. Heat the oil in a large wok or frying pan over high heat. Fry the chillies in the oil, until softened, then remove from the pan to a plate, using a slotted spoon or tongs.
  2. Add the marinated pork to the pan and allow to fry, undisturbed, until well-browned on one side. Add the garlic and stir-fry the ingredients for 1 minute, then return the chillies to the pan with the black beans, soy sauce, Shaoxing wine and sugar. Toss well to combine, until the pork is cooked through.
  3. Transfer the Hunan-style pork and chilli stir-fry to a serving plate and serve immediately.
