HO HO HO! Christmas is less than a week away! We hope you are just as excited as we are for this magical season of joy and sharing 🙂 Incorporate this Asian Stuffing Pork Roll as a stunning main for any feast you are looking to prepare. This dish boasts a flavorful rice coupled with crispy yet succulent pork belly!
This unique asian stuffing contains lap cheong, rice, mushrooms, XO seafood sauce and basic aromatics like garlic and shallots. Cooked in mushroom stock followed by lard when grilled in the oven, it definitely doesn’t lack flavour!
We got our slab of meat from the local supermarket, nothing too fancy, so everybody can access the ingredients readily 😉
