Roasted pork with small taro
Overview
There are many small taros on the market now. This kind of taro is medium in size and has a soft texture. It is very delicious when braised with pork belly. The oily aroma of the pork belly penetrates into the taro, making the taro, which itself has no taste, taste more fragrant than meat~ When I was a child, I loved scraping taro with my sister. My parents were allergic to taro. Every time I peeled the taro skin, my hands would be red and itchy, and would swell up the next day. Therefore, my mother never used the peeled taro in cooking. She just washed the dirt on the surface and poured it directly into the pot, cooked it and ate it as a snack. Such a simple way of eating was not good for us children, so we did not like taro and did not like to eat it. It was not until my sister and I grew up that we could help. When our parents started, taro peeling was our job, and we were very happy to accept such a task, because when our task was completed, our family would taste a different aroma of taro. My mother stir-fried a little pork belly and star anise, sprinkled a few grains of garlic, and dropped a few drops of dark soy sauce. After simmering and cooking, the aroma spread throughout the house, which was quite tempting. From then on, I slowly fell in love with this simple home-cooked dish.
