Cooking Steps

1

Cut the pork belly into thin slices, about 1/4 inch thick.

2

Heat the cooking oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced pork belly and stir-fry until lightly browned and slightly crispy, about 5-7 minutes.

3

Add the minced garlic and chopped red chili peppers to the wok and stir-fry for another minute until fragrant.

4

Add the sliced green bell peppers to the wok and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until they are tender-crisp.

5

Pour in the soy sauce, salt, and sugar. Stir-fry for another minute to combine all the ingredients and coat the pork belly and vegetables in the sauce.

6

Remove from heat and serve immediately with steamed rice.

Tips

For a richer flavor, you can marinate the pork belly in a mixture of soy sauce, rice wine, and ginger for 30 minutes before cooking.

Adjust the amount of red chili peppers to control the level of spiciness.

If you prefer a sweeter dish, add a bit more sugar.

Don't overcook the green bell peppers, as they should retain a slight crunch.

Serve hot with steamed rice for a complete meal.
