CANTONESE-STYLE TARO AND PORK BELLY CASSEROLE
This casserole relies on the complementary flavors and textures of taro and pork belly: one meaty, the other earthy; one chewy, the other tender.

Steps:
- BRING a large pot of water to a boil. Submerge the pork belly in the boiling water for 2 minutes to clean it. Remove from the pot and place in a colander. Rinse under cold water.
- USING a siu yuk poker (a needle or skewer works just as well), poke holes in the skin of the pork belly. (This will make the skin crispy after cooking.)
- IN a large bowl, toss the pork belly with the soy sauce to coat.
- MEANWHILE, heat the neutral oil in a large skillet to 350°F over medium-high heat. Add the pork belly and fry for 2 minutes on each side. Remove from the oil and set aside on a paper towel-lined plate.
- MAKING sure your oil is still at 350°F, add the taro (working in batches, if needed) and fry for about 2 minutes, until lightly browned. Remove and drain on a paper towel-lined tray.
- ONCE the pork belly is cool enough to handle, cut it into 3-inch strips. Place in a large bowl and mix with the taro.
- IN a small bowl, combine the salt, MSG, sugar, wine, toasted sesame oil, chicken powder, white pepper, five-spice powder, and fermented bean curd. Stir until the bean curd is broken up. Pour over the pork belly and taro mixture and toss until coated.
- ON a heat-safe tray, alternate tiles of pork belly and taro root, tightly packed. You can use multiple trays. Using the steaming method below, steam the trays in batches for 30 minutes, or until tender.
- USING a spatula or your hands, transfer the pork belly to the platter, maintaining the alternating pattern. Pour the remaining sauce on top and serve.
- How to Steam:
- Steaming is perhaps what sets dim sum apart from all other dumpling-loving kitchens of the world. We steam everything at Nom Wah in an industrial Vulcan steamer. At home, I recommend steaming in a wok. Steaming times vary depending on the density and size of what you are steaming. But the general setup to steam in a wok is as follows.
- Fill the wok with enough water to come up to the lower rim of the steamer but not so much the waterline is above the food bed. Line the bottom of the steamer with paper or a lotus leaf or something so that the fiddly bits won't fall through the cracks. (If steaming dumplings or bao, you won't need to line the steamer.) Place whatever needs steaming in the basket, leaving ample room between items. Bring water to boil and steam for the desired duration. If you need more water-water tends to evaporate-add boiling, not cold, water so as not to stop the steaming.
- If you do want to DIY it, just use a plate in a pot. All you need is tinfoil and a plate that fits in your pot. Fill a pot with ½ an inch of water. Then make a sort of tripod out of tinfoil by forming three golf ball-sized balls and placing them in the bottom of the pot, making sure their tops rest above the waterline. Rest the plate on the tinfoil, cover, and steam. This method is especially useful when making rice rolls, in which you'll be using a cake pan instead of the plate.
- You can put anything in the steamer as long as it isn't so small that it would tumble through the holes into the roiling waters below.
ORIENTAL CASSEROLE (WORM CASSEROLE)
I got this reciope from a friend at church. Our kids were little at the time and they dubbed it "worm casserole." The name stuck and everybody who asks us to make this always referes to it as "Worms." It is very good and you can use either real chicken or do a vegetarian version using a can of diced Loma Linda Brand Fri-chick.

- Add the marinade ingredients to the pork, and mix everything together until there is no visible liquid. Set aside for 30 minutes.
- Next, make the sauce. Add 1 teaspoon of oil, ginger slices, and star anise to a small saucepan over medium heat, and cook until the ginger starts to caramelize (about 1 minute). Next, add the ketchup. When that starts to sizzle, stir constantly until the ketchup starts to caramelize (about 2 minutes). Take care not to burn the aromatics and ketchup--this step is essential to give the sauce a deeper, more complex flavor.
- Next, add the white vinegar, sugar, and the juice from the canned pineapple. Stir until the mixture starts to simmer, and the sugar is dissolved. Turn to the lowest heat and let the sauce simmer and reduce until the sauce just starts to coat a spoon (about 30 minutes). The sauce needs this time for the flavors to meld. The sauce can be cooled and stored at this time, and you can double or triple the amount and store the sauce away in the refrigerator for future meals.
- Heat 3 cups of oil to 350F in a small pot for frying. Using a small pot and frying in batches leaves you with less leftover oil to deal with. Always let the oil cool completely and use a fine mesh strainer to strain the oil before storing in the refrigerator.
