Ya I agree, I think mine got quite fatty haha but never the less very delicious. I had some really good pork belly from a restaurant in Chinatown when I was in bangkok for a bit and since then i was like I need to make this when I get home!!
Didn't follow any in particular, I usually wing it after watching a few videos. For this dish I used Chinese 5 spice powder.
Ingredients
Chicken
4-5 cloves of garlic
5 spice powder
Chopped Mushrooms
Chopped Onions
Fish sauce
Oyster sauce
Sugar
Star anise and cinnamon sticks
Recipe
Marinade the chicken with soy sauce
Fry the chicken, chop them into medium sized pieces or whatever size you prefer. Add chopped onions, mushrooms and garlic and saute them along with the chicken. Let the chicken brown on both sides. Let the onions brown and shrink
Add 1 to 2 tbsp fish sauce and 1 to 2 tbsp of oyster sauce and stir well
Add water into the pan until it covers the chicken three quarters of the way.
Add star anise, cinnamon sticks and the 5 spice powder. Also add half or one tbsp sugar. Depending on how sweet you want. You can always adjust this later.
Lower the heat and let everything boil for 30 min with a lid.
Taste the sauce and add salt to taste
High flame again and reduce the sauce
Add 1 tsp corn starch slurry to thicken it up if you like.
Nothing in particular, i just watched a couple of videos on YouTube and put everything together
But here's what I did
Ingredients
6 to 8 cloves of garlic
4 red chillies
holy basil leaves (you can use Basil too but remember to ask a priest to sprinkle some holy water...lol)
minced pork
fish sauce
oyster sauce
soy sauce
Preperation
grind the garlic and chillies into a paste, or just smash them well.
heat up a pan, add 2tbsp oil and add the paste, stir well.
add the minced pork and stir it around until it looks cooked.
add fish sauce, oyster sauce and soy sauce. I don't usually measure this but add 1 tbsp each and adjust as you go and stir well. Be careful with the soy and fish sauce tho because the dish could end up very salty.
add the holy basil and stir for a couple minutes and shit of the heat.
Beef tartare always reminds me of Mr bean. I've always been curious, how does it taste?
