Prep - (30 min)

3/8 inch thick, 3/4 inch wide and as long as the thickness of the belly.
Each piece will have skin at one end.

mix in the Pork. Set aside while you prepare everything else,
turning now and then.
- Cut BELL PEPPERS into 1/2 inch wide strips 1-1/2 inch long.
Slice BAMBOO SHOOTS thin and cut into strips a little narrower
than the peppers. Slice SCALLIONS crosswise thin. Crush
GARLIC and chop fine. Slice GINGER thin and chop fine.
Mix all Aromatics items.
- Mix together all Broth items.
Run (30 min)
- Drain Pork and tumble with Cornstarch to coat.
- In a wok or spacious sauté pan heat deep fry Oil very
hot. Stir in Pork and fry stirring until lightly browned all
over and cooked through. Turn the heat down a bit as it browns, Don't
fry too long or the skin will harden.
- Remove Pork and drain on paper towels. Remove Oil and
wipe the the pan well.

a couple minutes. Peppers should be under-done. Stir Pork back
in to mix, then remove all from pan and set aside.

light caramel color. Let cool some, then slowly stir in the Sauce
mix. Bring to a boil and stir until the sugar is well
incorporated (it will have hardened into lumps).
