We can always encounter all kinds of delicious food in life, with different tastes. The most popular ones are probably chicken, duck, fish and various meat dishes. Especially pork, there are not only many ways to do it, but it is also one of the indispensable meats in our lives. There are our common pork ribs, pork belly, trotters, pig's feet, etc. The ingredients are different and the cooking methods are very different. In particular, pork belly is the most commonly prepared, and the most famous ones are braised pork and crispy pork.

We won’t talk about braised pork today. After all, I have shared several methods with you in previous issues, and I believe everyone is familiar with it. But we have to talk about the crispy pork. It is not only golden in appearance, but also has a very delicious texture in the mouth, which is very suitable for adults and children. So at this time, someone must be curious, since crispy pork is so delicious, how should it be cooked? In fact, the method of making crispy pork is very simple. The most important thing in the whole process is to control the oil temperature well. Do not fry the crispy pork until it is burnt, and at the same time, do not fry it too soft, otherwise it will greatly affect the taste.

Ingredients to prepare

Main ingredients: one pound of pork belly

Accessories: 150 grams of starch, two eggs, two green onions, ten grams of ginger, five spices Two grams of flour, three grams of salt, ten grams of cooking wine, and ten grams of light soy sauce

Steps for fried crispy pork

Step 1. Wash the pork belly with water, and then cut it according to the texture of the meat. Cut the pork belly into strips one centimeter wide and two centimeters long, and put them in a large bowl for later use

Step 2. Cut the onions and ginger into larger pieces, and then put them on top of the cut pieces. Add five-spice powder, light soy sauce, refined salt and cooking wine to the pork strips, stir well and marinate for 20 minutes

Step 3. After 20 minutes, the meat strips have been marinated and flavorful. At this time, we put the bowl in Remove the onion and ginger residue and throw it away. Beat in two eggs and stir, add starch, add an appropriate amount of cooking oil (about 30 grams), then add 100 ml of water, and stir them evenly with chopsticks. (When making the paste, stir in a clockwise direction, so that the pork strips and starch paste can be blended more evenly, and it will not be easy to peel off when frying)

Step 4. In the pot Add about one kilogram of cooking oil, and when the oil is 50% hot, we put the battered meat strips in the pot one by one for frying. (During the frying process, keep the fire high to keep the oil. The temperature continues to rise and the frying effect is better). When the meat strips swell and float out of the oil, remove and filter the oil.

Step 5: We raise the oil temperature to 70% heat again, put the filtered pork into the pot and fry it twice until the surface of the pork is golden and crispy. Drain out the filtered oil. The crispy pork produced in this way can not only be eaten directly, but also stewed. It is very delicious

Summary of fried crispy pork

Through the above steps, I believe Many people already have a deeper understanding of how to make crispy pork. In fact, the overall method of making crispy pork is not complicated, but the requirements for details are still relatively high. For example, adding cooking oil to the starch is a step that many people ignore. In fact, adding cooking oil can not only make the fried crispy meat brighter, but also make the surface of the fried crispy pork smoother.
