Homemade Pork Belly

This hearty and flavorful **Braised Pork Belly & Chicken with Tofu** is a comforting one-pot dish packed with rich, savory goodness.

Crispy tofu rolls, savory sausage, and nutrient-rich kelp add layers of texture, while boiled eggs soak up the aromatic braising liquid. Infused with scallions, ginger, garlic, and chili peppers, the broth is simmered with a blend of soy sauces, vinegar, and sesame oil for a deep, umami-packed flavor. Slow-cooked to meld the spices and ingredients, this dish delivers a perfect balance of meaty richness and subtle heat. Ideal for family dinners, it’s a satisfying meal that brings warmth and bold taste to every bite!
