Instructions

1 Cut a Taiwanese cabbage in halves and then in quarters. Remove the stalk
diagonally. Then, separate the leaves and wash them well. After washing the
leaves, you can cut them into 2-inch ribbons or tear them with your hand.
Hand-torn cabbage is more commonly used in Taiwanese cuisine.
2 Lay the cured pork belly on the cutting board and cut it into thin slices. Each
slice should be about one-fourth of an inch thick. Some people prefer to dice
the pork belly but I will keep them sliced.
3 Place a wok on the stove and keep the flame high. Add 1/2 tbsp of oil to the wok
and wait until the oil starts to smoke.
4 Put the slices of cured pork belly into the wok and stir-fry them for about 1-2
minutes. Rendering the pork fat is super important because it gives this dish an
amazing flavor.
5 Once the pork slices start to release fat, put the sliced ginger and garlic into
the wok. Then, add the chopped scallions and continue stirring. After about one
minute, add the chopped red chili and Sichuan peppercorns. Keep stirring the
ingredients.
6 Transfer torn cabbage leaves to the wok and mix everything well. Taiwanese
cabbage leaves don’t take much time to cook. Stir-fry them for about one minute
until the leaves turn translucent.
7 Start by adding 1/4 tsp of salt and 1/4 tsp of sugar. Then, add both the light
and dark soy sauce. If necessary, you can add a few splashes of oil to the wok.
8 Put a few splashes of dark vinegar around the edge of the wok and combine
everything. In about 45 seconds to one minute, the stir-fried cabbage will be
ready.
9 Quickly remove the cabbage from the heat and transfer it to the serving plate.
It is best enjoyed if served hot. Pair rice, noodles, or meat dishes with this.
You can even consume it without anything else.
