This Stir-Fried Cauliflower with Pork Belly is a savory, aromatic dish that brings together tender cauliflower and crispy pork belly in a bold, flavorful stir-fry. The cauliflower is soaked in rice washing water for extra crispness, then stir-fried with garlic, red and green peppers, and dried chilies for a spicy kick. Juicy pork belly is rendered until golden, adding rich depth to the dish. Three rounds of cooking wine enhance the umami, while scallions add a fresh finish. The result? A mouthwatering balance of textures and tastes—crisp veggies, melt-in-your-mouth pork, and a hint of heat. Perfect as a hearty side or main course, this dish is a must-try for anyone who loves bold, satisfying flavors!
