After I have successfully using corn flour for my previous post on Steamed Pork Belly with Salted Fish (咸鱼蒸猪肉), this time I used it again for steaming pork belly with fresh mushroom. The end result???? The slices of pork belly and mushroom is so flavorful and the gravy itself is also very yummy. And....the slices of mushroom is chewy and tasted like abalone!
My children enjoyed mixing the gravy with the rice and I regretted that I didn't cook extra rice for this! It's very appetizing indeed!!!
Ingredients :
- 1 strip of pork belly (skinned, sliced and marinated)
- 2 large portobello mushrooms (sliced)- 2 tbsp young shredded ginger
- 2 tbsp chopped garlic
- 1 red chili (sliced)
- some diced spring onions for garnishing (I had run out of spring onions, so, no garnishing :)
Marinate : (to taste)
- soy sauce
- 1/2 tbsp tapioca flour
Seasonings (Sauce) : to taste

Wow what a delicious and flavourful steamed dish.
ReplyDeleteThanks Mich :)
DeleteHi Ivy, pork belly and portobello mushrooms sound like a very delicious combination!
ReplyDeleteHi Jasline, this is indeed very yummy :)
DeleteThis dish is very unique to me. I thought you would have used Chinese or shitake mushroom:) btw, is there any difference if use either one?
ReplyDeleteHi Lian, you can use Chinese or mushrooms, but fresh ones is better. My family likes fresh mushrooms esp my hubby. He is the one who used to buy all sorts of fresh mushrooms from the supermarket and I just cook it whatever that comes into my mind, hahahaha..
DeleteThis a sure a 'tambah nasi' dish!!!
ReplyDeleteHi dear Christine, oh yes, tambah nasi and if it's only the sauce, pun cukup lah...
DeleteWhat a tasty sounding combination!
ReplyDeleteThanks yc :)
DeleteHi Ivy , this dish sounds delicious , love portobello mushrooms and this is a dish I will try soon , thanks for sharing :).
ReplyDeleteHi Nee, when cooking portobello mushrooms, I like to steam it or just a simple pan fry. It's very delicious. Have a wonderful day ahead and cheers :)
DeleteHaaaa!! I am loving the flavors but because I don't cook pork at home, I am looking at replacing it with chicken or fish. The gravy with the punch of miso is yum.
ReplyDeleteHi Nava, yes you can substitute it with any meat. Steam it with fish and it's very flavorful too. Have a pleasant weekend ahead :)
DeleteLook soo good Ivy! xo
ReplyDeleteThanks Gloria :)
Deletethis a very flavorful dish, yummy....

DeleteIvy, I never thought of cooking portobello mushrooms this way. I must try it as I love pork belly!
ReplyDeleteHi Phong Hong, my hubby likes to buy various fresh mushrooms quite regularly and I have to think of ways to cook it differently so that we will not get bored with the same dish every time. This steam mushroom is actually suggested by my hubby :) Do have a wonderful weekend ahead :)
DeleteHi Ivy, Looks good. Gonna try it out with portobello mushrooms
ReplyDeleteHi Doris, I know you will love it. Have a wonderful Sunday with your family :)
DeleteHi my dear, this dish look very appetizing, can you cook this dish for me but use lean meat or chicken? Actually I don't fancy pork belly except for siew yoke but must be crispy type. I very lecheh one... pig trotter and fatty meat I don't eat. hahaha....
ReplyDeleteYou can cook very well, simple and inviting. This type of home cook meal anytime very much better than ta pau food. :)
Have a wonderful weekend, enjoy your spring cleaning lah. I still lazing around, will wait till Deepavali only I continue. LOL
Of course, Amelia dear. For you, no problem. Just let me know when and I will cook for you. Today I steamed portobello mushroom + homemade rolled meat + long cabbage = simple one dish lunch meal. Easy peasy and ho chiak :)
DeleteIvy, thank you so much for stopping by and leaving all the kind words, I just feel bad that we had to "meet" under this circumstance...it is all good! I am ready for the transition and yes, I will be in contact.
ReplyDeleteAs for your steamed pork belly...it sure sounds and looks delicious with portobello mushrooms, I would love to paired this dish with lots of rice so I do not miss any of the sauce...yum!
Have a wonderful week my dear :D

ReplyDeleteFor me it's a total new way to prepare pork belly and I'm happy to learn about this recipe.
Thanks Daniela and have a wonderful week ahead :)
DeleteOh my gosh Ivy, the fragrance from this dish must be intoxicating. Thank you so much for sharing...
ReplyDeleteLouise, it's my pleasure and have a great week ahead :)
DeleteI'm cutting down on pork meats lately but this dish looks tempting, maybe I would give it a try since it was done by steaming. Hi Ivy, thanks for dropping by :)
ReplyDeleteHi Imee, you can omit the pork and substitute it with chicken meat too. I had done it this way and it's yummy too. have a wonderful week ahead:)
DeleteHi Ivy,
ReplyDeleteAt first glance, I thought that your pork belly is braised with very nice colour but after reading I realised that it is steamed, not braised!!! I like to try your method of steaming pork belly... Unlike most pale steamed, yours looks very appetizing!
Zoe
Thanks Zoe for your kind compliments. Yes, this steaming pork belly is very yummy and appetizing too, and the gravy too! Remember to cook extra rice to go with this dish. Have a wonderful day :)
DeleteHi Ivy,
ReplyDeleteYour steam pork belly looks so so appetitzing. I would love to slurp up all the gravy..lol
Between can I use abalone mushroom to cook this?
Thanks:)
mui
Hi Mui Mui, you can in fact substitute it with any types of mushrooms or any available ingredients. There's no fixed rules and most of my recipes depend on the available ingredients I have on that particular day. Just be creative and you will be surprised with the results. Have a great weekend ahead :)
