Hakka Zhar Yoke (Fried Pork) Recipe - with Japanese Pork

Hakka Zhar Yoke (Hakka Fried Pork) is possibly one of the most delicious pork dishes ever created! It is so tasty, there are never any leftovers whenever I make them!

For this recipe, I am using Japanese Pork Belly to make these delicious strips of pork. Do you know that there are over 400 different brands of Japanese pork? The Japanese are very particular about boar taint and they rear their pigs such that the fats are sweet and fragrant. Find out more about it here -https://www.promo-eventsg.com/jpork2022/
