Chef Tatung’s Tips:
- Options in preparing pork:
- Grill pork for about 7 to 10 minutes on each side or until crisp and slightly charred.
- Using a baking sheet, arrange pork in a single layer, skin side exposed and broil in a 230°C oven for about 4 to 15 minutes or until crisp.
- Heat oil to 190°C and fry until pork is crisp.
- Do not forget to dry the boiled pork first, before deep-frying or grilling to prevent oil from splattering.
- After combining all the wet and dry ingredients, do a taste test.
- Adding egg is also an option as it can add more substance to the dish hence, can lessen the saltiness.
