Ingredients
  

  • 2 tbsp Cooking Oil
  • 5 cloves Garlic (minced)
  • 1 piece Onion (sliced)
  • 200 grams Pork Belly (sliced into thin strips)
  • 1 tbsp Soy Sauce
  • 1 tbsp Oyster Sauce
  • 1/2 cup Water
  • 1 piece Carrot medium(julienned)
  • 1 piece Cabbage medium(sliced into strips)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Start by slicing the cabbage into strips, julienning the carrot, and cutting the pork belly into thin strips. Set them aside.
  • Heat the cooking oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sliced onion. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent and the garlic is fragrant.
  • Add the sliced pork belly to the pan. Stir-fry for about 5-7 minutes, or until the pork turns golden brown and the fat has rendered. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.
  • Pour in the soy sauce and oyster sauce. Stir well to coat the pork with the sauces.
  • Pour in 1/2 cup of water. Bring to a simmer, then lower the heat. Let it cook for 10 minutes to allow the pork to tenderize.
  • Add the julienned carrots first, and cook for 2-3 minutes. Then, add the sliced cabbage. Stir everything together and cook until the cabbage is slightly wilted but still crisp, about 3-4 minutes.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste. Once the vegetables are cooked to your liking, remove the pan from heat.
  • Serve hot as a side dish or as a main dish with steamed rice.
