View ProfileThis umami pork belly dish is seasoned with Chinese five-spice powder and marinated for hours in a mixture of soy sauce, cinnamon sticks, and star anise to create a rich and complex flavor. The pork belly is then slow-cooked until it’s deliciously tender, with a perfect balance of sweet and savory. The meal is served with Chinese sausage fried rice, a side of fresh broccoli, and a sprinkling of toasted sesame seeds and chopped scallions, which provide a beautiful, aromatic crunch.
