  4. No recipe???
    I have the ingredients .. No secert.
    1) Pork belly (cook pork in boiling water until half cooked. Some people like to deep fry the pork a little before cutting. This is optional.
    2) Taro
    Slice pork and taro to Macdonald hash brown size. LOL.
    Alternate the pork and taro pieces in the bowl. Put sauce all over (on top and in between)
    Put bowl in a steamer and steam for 1 to 1 1/2 hour. After finish cooking put a plate on
    top of the bowl and turn bowl upside down . Remove bowl , now the bottom side is facing up. add more sauce.

    For the sauce
    3) Rock sugar (enough to make sauce to the sweet side)
    4) 1/2 bottle of Koon Yick red bean curd
    5) 2 cups of minced shallots
    6) 1/4 cup of Minced garlic
    7) 1 or 2 Tablespoon of Brandy
    8) 1/2 cup cooking oil
    Heat oil in a wok. Put in shallots and garlic and fry until slightly brown.
    Add in bean curd and press with a large spoon until all dissolved.
    put in rock sugar (enough to make the sauce sweet.If it too sweet add a little salt. you can
    also put some corn starch solution to make the sauce a little sweet(optional))
    Use medium to low heat until done . If sauce is too thick add a few tablespoon of water.
    Sorry for not having exact measurement. Recipe was from Grandma unfortunally she is not here anymore.

  5. Sorry, I forgot to mention five spice powder for the above recipe. You need to put 1/4 teaspoon to cook with the sauce.
