How to Make Crispy Pork Fat and Cabbage Stir-Fry

Crispy pork fat and cabbage stir-fry is a comforting, savory dish that balances rich, salty flavors with fresh, crunchy vegetables. Here’s a simple guide to making it deliciously.

Ingredients: 200g pork fat (cut into small cubes), 1/2 head cabbage (shredded), 3 cloves garlic (minced), 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp sugar, 1/2 tsp white pepper, 2 tbsp cooking oil, and a pinch of salt.

Steps:

1. Prepare the pork fat: Rinse the pork fat, pat dry, and cut into 1cm cubes. Heat a wok over medium-low heat, add the fat, and fry slowly until golden and crispy (about 10-15 minutes). Remove excess oil, leaving 1 tbsp in the wok.

2. Sauté aromatics: Add minced garlic to the wok, stir-fry until fragrant (30 seconds).

3. Cook the cabbage: Toss in the shredded cabbage, stir-fry until it wilts slightly but stays crisp (3-4 minutes). Season with soy sauce, sugar, white pepper, and a pinch of salt.

4. Combine: Return the crispy pork fat to the wok, mix everything well for 1 minute. Serve hot with steamed rice.

Tips: For extra flavor, add a dash of vinegar or chili flakes. Adjust seasoning to taste. Enjoy this hearty, budget-friendly meal that’s perfect for any day!
