- cooking 10 minutes
- difficulty Easy level
Ingredients
- 500 g pork belly, placed in the freezer for 1-2 hours or until just firm
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- salt, to season
- 6 thick spring onions, finely shredded
- ½ tsp toasted sesame seeds
- lemon wedges, to serve
You will need to place the pork in the freezer 1-2 hours before you begin to cook.
Instructions
- Remove the skin from the pork belly, then slice across the grain into 1 cm–thick strips, then into 3 cm-wide pieces.
- Heat a wok over high heat and add half the oil. Cook the pork belly in batches by placing the pieces into the wok in a single layer so that they brown well on both sides. Season well with salt.
- Add the spring onions and toss until the spring onions are just wilted. Transfer to a plate and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Serve with lemon wedges.
