Ingredients
- 3 oz. dried sweet potato noodles (85g)
- 1 teaspoon oil (plus 3 tablespoons)
- 8 oz. pork belly (225g, thinly sliced)
- 3 slices ginger
- 1 to 2 star anise
- 6 Shiitake mushrooms (fresh or rehydrated dried)
- 1 pound Napa cabbage (450g, cut into large pieces)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon dark soy sauce
- 1/2 cup chicken stock (or water)
- 1 scallion (chopped, optional)
Instructions
- Pre-cook the sweet potato noodles, following the instructions on the package. Drain and toss in a teaspoon of oil to prevent sticking. Set aside.
- Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a wok over high heat until just starting to smoke. Brown the pork belly for about a minute, and then turn the heat down to medium. Remove the pork belly from the wok and set aside. Add the ginger, star anise, and mushrooms, and cook for 1 minute.
- Turn the heat back up to high, and add the napa cabbage. Stir-fry for a minute, and then add the salt, oyster sauce, dark soy sauce and chicken stock (or water). Mix everything well, cover, and simmer for 3 minutes. Mix in the cooked glass noodles and pork belly, cover, and simmer for another 2 minutes. Stir in the chopped scallion (if using) and serve!
