Pork Belly and Kale Fried Noodles

Posted February 5, 2019 by Stephanie

Happy year of the pig! Are you guys celebrating? We’ve been eating like crazy, especially all the lucky foods. I whipped up these quick pork belly and kale noodles so that we’ll be super lucky with long life. LOL.

Anyway, this is a quickie because I gotta get back to celebrating. We might even hit up the casino later with my parents – yup, it’s lucky to gamble on Lunar New Year. Something something about being more and more lucky in the new year. Who knows?! I do know that eating these noodles makes me feel pretty darn lucky though ;)

Pork Belly and Kale Fried Noodles
serves 2-4


Pork Belly

  • 1/4 pound pork belly, sliced into matchsticks
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 1/2 teaspoon shaoxing
  • 1/2 teaspoon light soy sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon sugar

Noodles

  • 2 tablespoons chicken stock or water
  • 1 tablespoon light soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
  • 1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoons sesame oil
  • 12 ounces thick cut noodles
  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • 3 stalks kale, stripped and roughly chopped

In a bowl, mix the pork belly with the corn starch, shaoxing, light soy sauce, and sugar.

In a separate bowl, mix together the chicken stock, soy sauce, hoisin sauce, dark soy, and sesame oil. Set aside.

Cook the noodles according to the package and drain.

Heat up a wok or sauté pan over medium high heat then add the oil. When hot and shimmery, add the pork and cook, stirring occasionally, until cooked through and crispy. Add the kale and cook until wilted. Add the noodles and sauce and toss everything together until the noodles are coated. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.

Enjoy hot!

    I’ve been cooking a lot more since social distancing. I followed your recipe and it turned out great. Really happy, which was rare cause I’m usually disappointed with what I cook. Thank you!
