Kiam Chai Boi / Choy Kuok



The other day, I roasted a piece of pork belly ( siew yoke )and kept some for making ' kiam chai boi ', a savoury asian dish using left overs of meat, prawns and cook it with Chinese Mustard (Gai Choy), pickled mustard green ( Kiam Chai ), dried chillies, slices of tamarind (Assam Poi) until all has soften and aromatic.  For me, I prefer roasted pork belly or roasted trotters thus I roasted pork belly for this dish :)  This dish is appetizing...hot and sour...I can eat this dish stand alone.  The soup is so much tastier especially I cooked this dish in Philips Pressure Cooker!  The pressure helps to keep the aroma and taste locked in.  Yummy!

All I need to do is to stir fry the vegetables...that is the Chinese Mustard and pickled mustard green with dried chillies, slices of dried tamarind, a piece of ginger with a tablespoon of oil until the greens has wilted and become soft.  Once the greens has turned soft about 15 mins, scoop the stir fried veggies and roasted pork belly into the pressure cooker.  Add water to the maxi level allowed.  Set to congee mode ..KPT 13 mins and after the pressure cooker depressurized, the Kiam Chai Boi is ready to be served.
