Pork Belly and Braised Spring Bamboo Shoots

Overview

Bamboo shoots are rich in plant protein and dietary fiber, carotene, vitamin B, vitamin C, vitamin E, calcium, phosphorus, iron and other essential nutrients for the human body. Bamboo shoots also have the characteristics of low fat, low sugar and high fiber. Eating bamboo shoots can not only promote intestinal peristalsis, help digestion, remove food accumulation, prevent constipation, but also prevent colorectal cancer. Bamboo shoots contain fat and very little starch, making them a naturally low-fat and low-calorie food. Modern medicine believes that bamboo shoots can absorb fat, promote food fermentation, aid digestion and promote excretion, so eating bamboo shoots has the effect of losing weight.

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Slice the purchased pork belly and stir-fry the ginger and pork belly in a hot pan to release the oil (spring bamboo shoots are very oily, and the stir-fried spring bamboo shoots in oil is the key to the deliciousness of this dish.)

   

2. 2 Add star anise, cinnamon, tangerine peel and ginkgo and stir-fry until the meat is slightly brown. Add light soy sauce and dark soy sauce to adjust the color. Add an appropriate amount of boiling water and cover.

   

3. 3 Buy fresh spring bamboo shoots and slice them, boil water in a pot and add salt, blanch the spring bamboo shoots in water for three minutes to remove the oxalic acid and astringency.

   

4. 4 The blanched spring bamboo shoots are added to the meat and simmered together, adding sugar to enhance the freshness.

   

5. 5 There are no chives at home, so I put ready-made scallions, boil until the water is dry and season with salt and chicken essence.

   

6. 6 A plate of fragrant and fat but not greasy pork belly and roasted spring bamboo shoots is ready.
