We're gonna be slitting the Pork belly meat side over here. So as you can see up close We're gonna be slitting it from here from about two fingers width side so that looks like about My fingers is about 15 centimeters apart But as you can see, this is the meat side.

I'm just gonna show you guys my quick method I'm just gonna put all the spice in a bowl mix it up, and I'm just gonna wipe it on to the Onto the pork belly and see how it comes out. Maybe it will be You'll be the same as how my mom makes the pork belly or it might be better. You'll have to see So first I'm gonna add in two teaspoons of salt here two teaspoons of salt Two teaspoons of salt we're adding two teaspoons of Chinese five-spice over here one one two Okay, I'm also gonna add in some white pepper Just gonna give it a quick sprinkle here. Just enough That should be it over here and Finally I'm gonna add in two teaspoons of bean sauce It's not black bean sauce. You just go to the Chinese supermarket and you see like One of these jars it says bean sauce. Yeah Add in two teaspoons looks like this Okay, add in two teaspoons of bean sauce here Two teaspoons Okay, now I'm gonna mix it up Mix it up and then you can see it looks like a paste over here As you can see, it looks rock hard now. I don't know if I'm doing it, right Or if I should have used my mom's method But I think this It won't even stick on to the pork bed so I'm gonna I think I'm gonna add in a bit of hot water just to dissolve it a bit and Then it'll become like a paste that will massage into the meat over here. I've got some hot water Just add a tiny little bit Okay Just gonna mix it up So it looks something like this here Add in just a little bit more water or make it into like a paste So I can rub it nicely into the meat. Yeah, now it's looking good Looks like soil a bit Okay, looks good I'm gonna put on some plastic gloves and rub it into the meat Hey guys, let me show you the paste over here Looks looks like soil over here this mixture Okay You can see I added in some hot water and it dissolved and made into a paste like this If I didn't add in the water, it'll be rock hard and it won't even like stick on to the meat Just gonna dump all this mixture Into the pork belly here Okay, now I'm gonna just rub it into the into the meat Rub it into the cut slit areas as well Massage it all into the meat. Make sure all the meat section has some of the spice You can use my mom's method or this method to To spice up your meat Whichever way is easier But for now, I'm trying this new method and I think my mom's method is way easier But you'll be a bit You always have to take off your gloves without put on the next spice and the next spice but yeah It's the same. You can mix up all your Ingredients up here and then just rub it in. It looks almost the same It's the same ingredients, same spice, same Yeah Same everything Okay, rub it all nicely Because anyway after we marinate this overnight The next day we'll have to boil this in a in a wok of water and A lot of the spices will be like falling off. So basically these spices just gonna be absorbed into the meat like on the Comments I received on the previous videos you guys said that Why don't you just leave the spice on and then just oven roast it But just look at that you're getting like two teaspoons of five spice and two teaspoons of salt. It's like How much flavor do you want to eat when you take a bite of of the pork belly? The crispy skin pork belly. It'll be too spicy. That's why We have to like cook it up a little bit for about 10 minutes And when you cook it up, it's like it brings in more water content into the meat and it also takes out the impurities of the Pork, you know the dirtiness Of the pork. So yeah, that's why we have to boil The pork belly a bit just try this method. It's it's awesome. Okay Look at that nicely rubbed and now I'll show you guys how to make the pork belly skin area Just look. Okay. I'm gonna get a pan Just get any tray over here We're gonna put this on top of the tray Okay Then I'll show you guys how to spice up Spice up the pork belly skin side Okay guys, so let me show you guys how to do the Skin area to make it crispy when you air fry this or when you put it into your oven So first we're gonna add in Two teaspoons of bicarbonate of soda here Okay Next I'm gonna add in about three teaspoons of water Just to dissolve the bicarbonate of soda here, not too much Then we're gonna rub it Rub it nicely into the skin here the bicarbonate of soda Give it a good rub You don't need to add too much water.

The water should be boiling after 15 minutes, then we will just swap it around And cook it for another five minutes, then we'll pop it into the airfryer Okay guys, so it has been 10 minutes Now we're gonna flip it over and let it boil for about five minutes Then we'll pop it into the airfryer But before we pop it into the airfryer, we'll get some forks to fork the pork belly skin over here You see all this dirtiness that comes out of this pork You have to take that impurities out or else you will be eating that stuff in your stomach So it's like basically it's cleaner when you do this I'm sure you guys say there won't be much flavor, but I'm telling you guys I guarantee you guys the flavors enough You don't want so much flavor in your pork belly Okay, we'll let this boil for about five more minutes and then we'll show you the next procedure It's been boiling for about 15 minutes, so it's time to take it out It's been boiling for two more minutes, so it's time to take it out Take it out and let it cool down, then we can burn it Okay guys, so This is our airfryer We're gonna be putting some tinfoil Inside here so that the oil won't leak everywhere And yeah, this is our well-boiled pork belly over here We're using the Philips airfryer XXL large over here Okay, on our airfryer my mom has put three little mini saucers I think it's just to lift up the pork belly up so that The pork belly skin will like be nearer to the fan heat of the airfryer Before that, she will be oiling this saucer over here so you can see It will be lifted up from the center up The black part It's starting to loosen up So my mom used a knife just to scrape the skin a bit Yeah, and then now we're using these forks over here to poke a lot of holes Millions and millions of holes Yeah Don't let it stick to the pan As you can see after we poke the holes My mom is also brushing some oil on top of the pork belly skin Just like that And then we can pop it into the air fryer Because you turned it around Turned it around So that's how you do it It's the same Let's cook the meat first We're going to be cooking the meat side first So we tuned it at 180 degrees To cook the meat side For about 20 minutes Then we will flip it over To cook the pork belly skin At 200 degrees for 25 minutes Then we can eat it 200 degrees So when you turn it around You need to loosen it So once this is done We will take it back out And then we will also spike The pork belly skin again And we'll pop it back into the air fryer After we cook the meat We'll flip it over And take it out And then we'll spike it Let's see if this works I'll use a chopstick I'll use a chopstick to pick it up It's coming out I'm afraid it's going to leak oil I'll fix it later Let's flip it over The meat side has been cooked Now we're going to be cooking Left frying the Pork belly skin section But before we do that We're going to spike more holes into the pork belly skin So as you can see We spike more holes Spike more holes And then just pop it back into the air fryer We can pop it back into the air fryer But this time we're going to be Air frying it at 200 degrees For about 25 minutes We're going to be air frying it To make it
