Steamed Pork

Steamed Pork

Overview

Growing up, my mother bought pork belly and dipped it in rice noodles and steamed it directly in a pot. My grandpa loved meat, especially fatty meat. The rice noodles were fat but not greasy, so my mother often made them for him. To this day, I don’t like pure lean meat and prefer fatty meat. When I went to Chengdu with my children, I ate steamed beef once. The sweet potato underneath was delicious. When I got home, I replaced it with a ready-made pumpkin at home. The pumpkin was soaked with the aroma of meat, and it was sweet, salty, and delicious. In the future, I will prepare potatoes, sweet potatoes, and eggplants underneath... Really, just thinking about it makes me drool...

  4. Cover with plastic wrap, poke a few small holes in the film, and steam in the microwave for 10-15 minutes. A piece of pumpkin is placed on the top layer. I am mainly afraid that the oil will splash on the plastic wrap and burn it during steaming. In fact, since the pumpkin has a lot of water, you don't need to worry about the temperature being too high for frying.
