[@gabynmp]

I made this today and it is so amazing! So fragrant and tender, the whole family loves it! I did add a bit of garlic and a tiny dash of 5 spice powder to the braised mixture, the nice smell is out of this world! I even made the thinly sliced version for my dysphagia 73 y.o. father, and he totally loves it, he can eat it with no problem because the pork really melts in the mouth. Thank you sooo much for sharing this recipe! Wish you many blessings in return!

If I want to sear the pork belly first for some added texture, should I still boil it before I sear it or is it accomplishing the same thing?

[@DonwardDucken]

I would boil it after searing it, but I don't think you would get much texture out of a short fry in the pan

You know this is a boss video when they get 87 likes an no dislikes. Major shoutout to you and your wife Roland! I’m originally from SG, but have been in UK for 6-7 years now for study/work. Your cooking channel has really helped me find a hobby, and more importantly a sense of home during our year of lockdown. If I ever do get to come home anytime soon, I really hope to run into one of your live cooking demo to personally thank you! Will definitely try this dish out (personal childhood fav of mine), and my new fav dish is no longer Maggie mee. It’s the steamed sotong you posted!!!! Love your videos mate!’ Please don’t stop 🤟

[@blacksync1281]

I tried this today. Smell really nice which bring back memories of eating this dish for the first time at Clementi back in 2014 when i was in Singapore. I follow ur instruction and i like salty flavor but it is way too salty. I am sure it is because of the light and dark SoySauce brand i used. I am using ABC brand. I will buy good one and try again. ❤️❤️ As always thanks for sharing this recipe. Stay Safe n Stay Strong.

Is it on high or medium for the pressure cooker ?

Pressure cook questions. Instant release or slow release once 1 HR up? My pressure cook has (less, medium and high), so Which temp I need to use for open lid cook?
