【Luzhou Pork with Sand Sauce】

Overview

It has been raining heavily in Xinjiang these past few days, and the weather is extremely cool. Still feeling cold. Some time ago, my daughter-in-law said that she wanted to eat pork with grits and it was cool, so she would eat pork with grits at noon today. The pork belly is made with pork belly. Put the red bean paste into the meat slices and steam until it is cooked and soft. It tastes sweet and glutinous, fat but not greasy. This dish is always present at banquets in our hometown of Luzhou, especially in rural areas. This dish is always popular with the elderly and children in particular
