Farmhouse stir-fried pork is one of the most distinctive dishes in Hunan cuisine in China. It uses pork as the main material and is mainly cooked with stir-frying. The taste is spicy. At first glance, it looks like fried pork with chili peppers, but this is by no means an ordinary plate of fried pork with chili peppers. It gathers the charred aroma of pork belly, the tenderness of lean meat, the salty aroma of dried fermented beans, and the sour and spicy taste of Hunan chopped peppers. Such a wonderful combination has created this delicious and unlimited plate of Hunan farmhouse stir-fried pork. <br />Hunan farmers are also very particular about the selection of stir-fried pork. The pork belly should be selected with delicate meat quality. It is best to have obvious layers of "gauze separated" pork belly. The lean meat is generally selected from the front leg meat, because the pork leg meat is more delicious and chewy. It is best to use Hunan pepper with a relatively thin body shape, which has no moisture and is spicy. (The relatively large peppers contain too much water, and the stir-fried vegetables will be watery, which will make the finished vegetables lose their oily and dry flavor of "farm dishes")<br /> During the frying process, the heat is very important and stir-fry should be carried out over high heat. In addition, the processing of pork belly is also very important. The pork belly must be fried out of oil first and turned into charred slices. The lean meat only needs to be fried in a frying pan. The lean meat processed in this way is relatively tender and forms a sharp contrast with the charred pork belly.
