Ingredients
- 300 g skinless pork belly, cut into 2 cm pieces
- ¾ cup vegetable oil
- 400 g green beans, trimmed, cut into 5 cm lengths
- 4 cloves garlic , thinly sliced
- 1 tbsp oyster sauce
- 1 tbsp Shaoxing wine
- ½ tsp sugar
- 1 tsp shio kombu, finely chopped, plus extra to serve
- Aonori, to serve
For the marinade
- 1 tsp cornflour
- 1 tsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp Shaoxing wine
- A pinch salt
- 1 tsp sesame oil
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the pork with the marinade ingredients and mix well to combine. Heat the oil in a wok or large frying pan over high heat. Add the beans and fry for 5-10 minutes, or until the beans appear dry and wrinkled. Use tongs or a slotted spoon to remove the beans to a plate, then drain the oil from the pan, reserving 2 tbsp to fry the pork. Return the pan to high heat.
- Add the marinated pork to the pan and fry undisturbed, until well-browned on one side. Add the garlic and stir-fry for 1 minute, or until fragrant. Return the beans to the pan with the oyster sauce, Shaoxing wine, sugar and shio kombu and stir-fry until the pork is cooked through and the ingredients are well coated.
- Transfer the pork belly with green beans and shio kombu to a serving plate. Scatter with a little more shio kombu, some aonori and serve.
